Description
‘A brilliantly eclectic mix of dark, unsettling tales’ Joanne Burn, author of The Bone Hunters
‘Tis the season to be haunting
An unexpected and unwelcome voice on the world’s first radio broadcast in 1908. A son who won’t stop messaging his family on Facebook, although he’s been dead for quite some time now. A frozen forest in a far north land where the sinister elf-kin lurk in the snow.
A Scottish island where the locals make very sure their old folk don’t go hungry through the long winter.
Over the past two decades Adam Macqueen has sent a Haunted Tale to his family in place of a Christmas card. A collection in the grand tradition of ghost stories – to be read by the fire in the depths of winter – it proves that terror lurks in many places, and the dead take on infinite guises . . .
Publisher Review
‘A brilliantly eclectic mix of dark, unsettling tales’ – Joanne Burn, author of The Bone Hunters ‘A delight from start to finish. Adam MacQueen demonstrates a wonderful variety of voice and tone, and a great affection for the form, lacing these tales with genuine chills. He has created a wonderfully seasonal treat – exactly the kind of book you want to curl up with as the winter nights draw in’ – Amanda Mason, author of The Wayward Girls ‘A unique and terrifying collection of ghost stories with twists I never saw coming. A book to be read by the fireside in the cold winter nights. Just don’t look up at the shadows!’ – Carly Reagon, author of The Toll House
