ANTHOLOGY OF SPINE-CHILLING GHOST STORIES, HANDPICKED BY RUSKIN BOND, THAT WILL LEAVE READERS HAUNTED LONG AFTER THE LAST PAGE IS TURNED.<br/>A shadow lurking over the bed, a hand pressed against the window, the sound of slippers scuffing down a dark alley … everyone loves a good ghost story, especially Ruskin Bond—one of India’s best-loved authors and a doyen of the art of spooky tales. Within the pages of this carefully curated anthology are stories handpicked by Bond himself.<br/>Featuring masterful storytellers like Nathaniel Hawthorne, H.P. Lovecraft, M.R. James, Rudyard Kipling, Edith Nesbit, Paul Ernst and other notables, this collection is a haunting mix of the eerie, the unsettling and the downright terrifying.<br/>In ‘The Ghost of Dr. Harris’, for instance, the spectre of a wronged doctor haunts the living, blurring the line between justice and vengeance. Then there’s ‘The Terrible Old Man’, in which three criminals plan to rob an old man with a spooky smile. M.R. James’s ‘The Haunted Doll’s House’ unfolds a miniature horror show, complete with a murder. Rudyard Kipling’s classic ‘My Own True Ghost Story’ takes you into the eerie atmosphere of British India. And this is just the beginning …<br/>Open the pages of 13 Chilling Ghost Stories—if you dare—and lose yourself in its perfect blend of timeless horror and classic storytelling. |
