About
Supernatural StoriesBy Tony Walker From haunted houses to forests where the silence has teeth, from ancient curses to modern demons, these tales move between the strange, the chilling, and the uncomfortably familiar.A door knocks where no visitor could stand. A coastal town watches for a beast that should not exist. In the heart of Whitby, something stirs beneath the waves. A parasite of the mind rewrites lives from the inside out. And in a basement room off Edinburgh's Candlemaker Row, an artist discovers her greatest work - and the price it demands.Each story stands alone, yet all are bound by a common thread: the unseen pressing against the fabric of the everyday. Here are encounters with what lies just beyond sight - and sometimes with what is already inside us. For readers who relish M. R. James's creeping dread, Robert Aickman's disquieting ambiguities, and the modern unease of contemporary horror, Supernatural Stories offers a journey through places you might recognise, but will never see in quite the same way again.
