The Eerie Book

A haunting anthology of supernatural stories and the macabre by well-known authors of gothic novels, folklore and fairy tales, each featuring a chillingly striking black-and-white illustration.
This chilling anthology, first published in 1898, features classic gothic authors Edgar Allan Poe, Mary Shelley, Thomas de Quincey and Hans Christian Andersen alongside well-known and influential fairy tales and folklore. All of the macabre stories and extracts from longer works have hints of the supernatural and many include malevolent spirits and grotesque murders. But this varied selection also features melancholy hauntings and poignant memoir in a fascinating mix of gothic horror and disturbing legend. Each story is illustrated with a striking engraving by art nouveau artist William Macdougall.

Beautifully produced, carefully curated and timeless, this book is the perfect gift for anyone who likes to be haunted by ghost stories. Read it if you dare.
