The Haunting Season by Bridget Collins & Andrew Michael Hurley &  digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Eight bestselling, award-winning writers return to the time-honoured tradition of the seasonal ghost story in this spellbinding collection of new and original haunted tales.

Long before Charles Dickens and Henry James popularized the tradition of supernatural horror, the shadowy nights of winter have been a time for people to gather together by the flicker of candlelight and experience the intoxicating thrill of a spooky tale.

Now nine bestselling, award-winning authors—all of them master storytellers of the sinister and the macabre—bring the tradition to vivid life in a spellbinding new collection of original spine-tingling tales.

Taking you from the frosty fens of the English countryside, to the snow-covered grounds of a haunted estate, to a bustling London Christmas market, these mesmerizing stories will capture your imagination and serve as your indispensable companion to cold, dark nights. So curl up, light a candle, and fall under the ghostly spell of winters past . . .

Anxious Face with sweat“Confinement was so good and scary. I had to hide in bed with my blanket drawn up to my chin because I was genuinely scared 😖”
“Liked this book of short stories except the last chapter which was too explicit for me. Another book transporting me to spooky settings in England. Great winter read.”
