Seth's newly illustrated version of a classic Christmas Ghost Story by horror master M.R. James.
M.R. James' celebrated ghost stories resonate still. A towering presence in literature, TV and film, his work is much admired today. This new collection brings together many of his most famous tales including: Oh, Whistle, and I'll Come to You, My Lad; Canon Alberic's Scrap-Book; The Mezzotint; The Fenstanton Witch; The Experiment; Wailing Well.
A lavishly illustrated collector's edition containing all the tales ever written by M.R. James, the undisputed father of the modern ghost story.
Halloween might seem like the spookiest time of year, but Charles Dickens and other great ghost story writers felt otherwise!
M. R. James's terrifying, atmospheric ghost stories - in graphic novel form
M.R. James is probably the finest ghost-story writer England has ever produced. These tales are not only classics of their genre, but are also superb examples of beautifully-paced understatement, convincing background and chilling terror.
Widely acknowledged as the master of the supernatural, M. R. James penned many of his classic ghost stories to be read aloud to friends, by candlelight, in his study on Christmas Eve. These five adaptations, originally broadcast on BBC Radio 4, perfectly capture the mood of nerve-jangling suspense that would surely have been present during those readings. In 'Oh, Whistle, and I'll Come to You, My Lad', Professor Parkins embarks on a terrifying journey of discovery after he removes a curious artefact from the ruins of a Templar preceptory; while 'The Tractate Middoth' sees diligent curator David Garrett caught up in the machinations of the mysterious Dr Rant when he's sent to retrieve an obscure manuscript from the library stacks. 'Lost Hearts' tells of a young boy haunted by two ghostly children, and in 'The Rose Garden', terrifying forces are unleashed when the Goodmans tear down their old summer house. Finally, 'Number 13' takes us to the Danish town of Viborg, where Dr Anderson puts himself in terrible danger as he investigates why the hotel he's staying at does not contain a room 13. Starring BAFTA and Emmy-award winning actor Derek Jacobi, and with powerfully chilling music and sound effects, these rich, riveting dramatisations make for irresistible listening.
