A seaside honeymoon holiday is plagued by the

mystery of bells which never stop ringing - and that which answers the call.

Druidic rites and modernity spells disaster at a Norfolk golf course. An

ancient relic found on the Suffolk coast summons a nightmarish entity to its

discoverer.

A land of mind-stretching expanses, wide, yawning

skies and the disorientating landscapes of the tidal fens, East Anglia has

inspired a wide range of writers in the field of weird and uncanny fiction.

This new collection includes a wealth of tales from

the past 130 years set in Norfolk, Essex, Suffolk and Cambridge by a host of

authors including ghost tale luminaries M. R. James, Robert Aickman, E. F.

Benson and Marjorie Bowen, alongside bright lights of modern weird writing.
