**A bone-chilling, gorgeously designed paperback collection of 11 uncanny tales from one of the great masters of the ghost story.
“Arguably the most powerful American writer of horror fiction between Poe and Lovecraft.” — New York Times **
Any lover of the dark and unsettling tale will be enthralled by the 11 stories in this collection, all from the pen of the great Ambrose Bierce.
An uncanny murder is relived from 3 startling perspectives; a hunter is driven out of his mind by an invisible, malevolent entity; a werepanther creeps through a window in the dead of night...
Bierce is often seen as the link between Poe and Lovecraft in the American fantastical tradition. From “An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge”, widely regarded as one of the great American short stories, to “An Inhabitant of Carcosa,” which was a powerful influence on the works of Robert W. Chambers and H.P. Lovecraft, this collection showcases his mastery of the macabre and some of the most famous works of weird fiction ever produced.
The mesmerizing stories contained in this gorgeously produced paperback include:
The Damned Thing;
The Moonlit Road;
An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge;
The Death of Halpin Frayser;
The Suitable Surroundings;
The Middle Toe of the Right Foot;
Moxon's Master;
An Adventure at Brownville;
The Eyes of the Panther;
The Spook House;
An Inhabitant of Carcosa
Featuring a stunning art deco design, this collection of Bierce’s fiercely imaginative work will transfix and terrify fans of the uncanny.
