Book Overview

by Neil Williamson (Editor), Angela Slatter (Author), James Bennett (Author)

Tales of the city redolent with ritual and drenched in dread.

Folk Horror is primarily associated with isolated settings and weird beliefs. Traditionally the isolated setting is rural, but our cities have been around for a long time too, their histories constructed layer upon layer, their secrets long kept and buried deep within housing schemes and suburbs, gilded business districts and gated communities, industrial wastelands and crumbling tower blocks...

Who knows what our old bricks were made of or what lies beneath our brightly lit pavements? Who knows what goes on behind locked doors?

All original stories from modern day masters of the unsettling and the macabre.
