Born in London in 1869, Blackwood began publishing ghost stories in 1906 and became a prolific writer, as well as a journalist and radio broadcaster. Included in this collection are such classic tales as "Ancient Sorceries", which follows a tourist who becomes enchanted by a strange French town and the ancient secrets that are hidden there, and the "The Willows", which was considered by H. P. Lovecraft to be one of the finest supernatural stories ever written. Blackwood interwove both the traditional elements of horror literature, such as haunted houses and ghosts, with ideas far ahead of his time, like cosmic experiences, advanced beings, and multiple dimensions of existence. Blackwood is famous for his unsurpassed ability to create foreboding moods, slowly building suspense, and keeping readers on the edges of their seats. All together this collection includes eighteen of Blackwood’s most haunting tales. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.

Über den Autor
Algernon Henry Blackwood (1869 - 1951) was an English short story writer and novelist, one of the most prolific writers of ghost stories in the history of the genre. He was also a journalist and a broadcasting narrator. S. T. Joshi has stated that "his work is more consistently meritorious than any weird writer's except Dunsany's" and that his short story collection Incredible Adventures (1914) "may be the premier weird collection of this or any other century".
