18 ghost stories will chill you to the bone in this horror anthology featuring original short stories by Joe Hill, Paul Tremblay, and more!

“I’m incredibly impressed. It’s beautifully crafted, elegant work.” —Clive Barker, author of The Hellbound Heart and Books of Blood

The brightest names in horror fiction showcase a ghastly collection of 18 ghost stories that will have you watching over your shoulder, heart racing at every bump in the night.

• In “My Life in Politics” by M.R. Carey the spirits of those without a voice refuse to let a politician keep them silent.
• In “The Adjoining Room” by A.K. Benedict, a woman finds her hotel neighbor trapped and screaming behind a door that doesn't exist.
George Mann’s “The Restoration” sees a young artist become obsessed with returning a forgotten painting to its former glory, even if it kills her.
Laura Purcell’s “Cameo” shows that the parting gift of a loved one can have far darker consequences than ever imagined.

Also featuring horror short stories by Joe Hill, Josh Malerman, and Paul Tremblay, this horror anthology will send a chill down your spine like someone has walked over your grave . . . or perhaps just woken up in their own.
Marie O'Regan is an British Fantasy Award-nominated writer and editor of horror and dark fantasy fiction.
