Description

A spine-tingling collection of 12 ghostly tales by Scottish authors or with atmospheric Scottish settings. Spanning 1821-1921, discover a stirring and spooky collection of favourite and less familiar stories. Includes ‘A Journey of Little Profit’ by John Buchan (1875-1940); ‘The Open Door’ by Margaret Oliphant (1828-97); ‘Glamis Castle’ by Elliott O’Donnell; and ‘The Laird o’ Coul’s Ghost’ by J. Maxwell Wood, published 1911. From the Gothic to the unsettling: lovers of the uncanny will be drawn to tales reflecting the evocative landscapes and folklore of Scotland. Includes a list of suggestions for further ‘fantastic reads’, author biographies and an engaging introduction exploring ghost stories in Scottish literature.
