'Silence' and Other Stories: Ten Eerie Tales

5/5 ( ratings)

Ten weird and unsettling tales – of lurking evil, bewitched figurines, restless shades, monstrous beasts and self-deluding occultists – in settings ranging from rural North Yorkshire and its moors to the backstreets of North London; from 16th century France to a near-future New York.

In the title story, the hero is tricked into attending an avant-garde film festival where he is possessed by a vengeful spirit. ‘History Tells Us’ has an irascible, and possibly murderous, woodsman take his workmate on a moonlit trek over a haunted, wintry moor. ‘A Lucky Charm’ tells of the last day of a cantankerous and cursed antique dealer, ‘Dweezils Ripped My Flesh’ of an egotistical and reckless artist with access to dangerous technology.

By turns comic and disturbing, award winning poet Tim Turnbull brings his acute observation of human folly to these stories of hubris and disaster, terror and doom.

Pages: 164
