The fabric of Dorothy K. Haynes’ weird fiction is truly the stuff of nightmares, where horrors cruel and mundane are interwoven with threads of dark fairy folklore and twisted witchcraft to deliver heady supernatural thrills.
In this new collection, Haynes expert Craig Lamont presents the essential classics of her strange storytelling alongside rarities from obscure anthologies and magazines – and several stories exhumed from the family archive which have never been published before.
Featuring illustrations by Mervyn Peake from the Library’s collections, this volume knits the irresistible pull of Haynes’ unique brand of the uncanny with a rare opportunity to discover new material from one of the great weavers of Scottish horror.
