A truly frightening offering for the #13BooksofHalloween countdown today: you might be surprised to learn that #ENesbit beloved author of #therailwaychildren, #fivechildrenandit, and other favorites, penned a series of dark and haunting #ghoststories for grown-ups; the very best of which are collected here in this anthology from @penguinukbooks with an introduction from @naomi_alderman. "Lurking in the background are dead children, thwarted love, jealousy, vengeance, and the sense that even the best kind of love - the famous love that never falters, the love that pays the price - has something dark within it" - @guardian ๐๐ฏ๐ธ๐ท๐๐ฆ#allhallowsread #bumpinthenight #spooky #halloweenbooks #scarybooksforadults #haunting #needtoread #classichorror #horror #thepower #disobediance #naomialderman #scary #creepy #chills #horrorstories #coverart (at Chicago, Illinois)
