Ten Poets Tell You Their Favourite Ghost Story

Ten poems. Ten poets. Ten eerie apparitions recalled.

“One need not be a Chamber—to be Haunted—”

When a poet turns to the subject of ghosts, it’s as much conjuration, or spectral evocation, as it is a story. We have gathered here ten in one slim book — ten possible summoning spells, primed to plant sounds and images deep in the ear and eye. Would you risk reading them aloud? Be careful — repetition is a kind of incantation. And the ghosts in these lyric tales are as angry as they are mournful as they are cold .
