ANTHOLOGY OF SPINE-CHILLING GHOST STORIES, HANDPICKED BY RUSKIN BOND, THAT WILL LEAVE READERS HAUNTED LONG AFTER THE LAST PAGE IS TURNED.
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.
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.
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 …
