NEW TITLE NEWS: A SECOND GHOSTS & SCHOLARS BOOK OF FOLK HORROR

A SECOND GHOSTS & SCHOLARS BOOK OF FOLK HORROR
 
For the ghostly season, Sarob Press is ‘announcing’ the publication of A Second Ghosts & Scholars Book of Folk Horror… a very special M.R. Jamesian ‘folk horror’ volume following on from the long sold out A Ghosts & Scholars Book of Folk Horror (published way back in 2018). Here you’ll find fifteen super stories by some terrific modern writers... five of the tales have previously appeared in Ghosts & Scholars/Haunted Library publications and the other ten are wholly original to this volume.
Creepy spooky tales for the long dark winter nights ahead.
So, light up the fire, pop on your slippers, have a glass of something special to hand, make yourself nice and comfortable and get ready to dive in and enjoy some delicious pleasing terrors.
 
Here’s what you’ll get:

POST-PUBLICATION @ UK £52.00 (inclusive of Postage and Packing and sent from France)
The high Post-Publication Price is wholly due to the now substantially elevated cost of shipping to the UK from France.
I therefore urge all my UK friends to order/reserve early to take advantage of the Pre-Publication price.

IMPORTANT: I’m very sorry but due to the ongoing uncertainty and difficulty in posting to the United States with LA POSTE here in France I am unable to accept orders from the USA Post-Publication. I therefore urge all my USA friends to order/reserve early so I can post orders along with all other Pre-Publication shipments when I visit the UK.
