Casting light on the weird and wonderful
Available now
Until it was demolished in 1949, Redcap Manor was considered one of the most haunted places in England. Although little remembered today, the once renowned Edwardian ghost-and fairy-hunter Arthur L. Randolph conducted a series of experiments with electromagnetic fields in the manor in the early 20th century, with his reported sightings of boggarts, barghests, banshees and bloodsuckers causing a considerable stir in society at the time. The long-lost notes of A.L. Randolph were recently rediscovered and are published here for the first time. Randolph’s haunting recollections of faeries and phantoms, accompanied by artwork by Rustan Curman, shine an electric light on Britain’s hidden world. Enter Redcap Manor, if you dare… Artwork © Rustan Curman, 2023. ISBN 978-1399966276
Horror fiction reflects the fears of the day, and the Great War cast a long shadow over fiction published in the 1910s. This new collection features one story originally published in each year of the decade, including classics like "Casting the Runes" (1911) and "Dracula's Guest" (1914), as well as lesser known tales like "The Horror of the Heights" (1913) and "Unseen-Unfeared" (1919).

Out of print and all but unobtainable for 116 years, Raw Edges: Studies and Stories of These Days has finally returned from the grave. This collection by the Edwardian journalist and author Perceval Landon is best remembered for the classic ghost story Thurnley Abbey, which is now reunited with its fellow tales of madness, the macabre, and the malevolent. With artwork by Alberto Martini that is as unsettling and provocative today as it was when it was first published over a century ago, Raw Edges is an experience like no other: a descent into the darkness of bloody war, ghostly revenge, society scheming, and technological horror, as told by a master of his craft.
Beneath a veneer of peace, prosperity, and technological advancement, the Edwardian era was a powder keg of political instability and inequalities. This rising tension is reflected in horror stories of the time: “weird fiction” rears its many heads as the Victorian ghost story finds itself dragged into an increasingly electrical world. This new collection contains one short horror story from each year of the 1900s, with contributions from Barry Pain, M. R. James, Edith Nesbit, Algernon Blackwood, and other masters of the genre. Brought to eerie life by Lara Berge’s enchanting illustrations, these tales of lunar seduction, haunted artefacts, undead nuns, and chthonic beasts expose the darker side of the Edwardian consciousness.
