Various Authors, edited by Dan Coxon - Unhallowed Gifts

Sometimes your possessions own you. Delve into twelve terrifying stories that reimagine a tradition that stretches back over a century to W.W. Jacobs’ ‘The Monkey’s Paw’. Discover the antique brooch possessed by a malignant spirit; the sewing needle that demands a bloody sacrifice; a cardboard cutout animated by the restless dead; a secret so unholy that even its likeness has the power to send people mad. Unhallowed Gifts proves that fear comes in many forms – and not all gifts are given with your best interests in mind. Featuring stories by: Paul Tremblay, Charlie Higson, Evelyn Hollow, Eric LaRocca, Daisy Johnson, Laura Purcell, Jeremy Dyson, Muriel Gray, Robert Shearman, Lucie McKnight Hardy, John Langan, and Matt Hill.
