A curated selection of chilling ghost stories from world literature, _x000D_ introduced and edited by broadcaster Stephen Johnson.

In the spirit of a fireside storyteller, each tale has an _x000D_afterword by Stephen Johnson, to suggest what the story might _x000D_really be telling us. With contributions from Tove Jansson, Henry James, Penelope Lively, Emily Bronte and more.
