Summary
Days from civilisation five men are about to experience something beyond the rational. In the snow slaked wilds where the natives fear to tread, these men search for moose but find something more terrifying and supernatural.

The Willows
Summary
Perhaps Blackwood's most celebrated story, The Willows was influenced heavily by his own trips down the Danube River. It tells the story of two campers who pick the wrong place to sleep for the night, a place where another dimension impinges on our own. H.P. Lovecraft considered this the finest supernatural tale in English literature.

The Empty House and Other Ghost Stories
Summary
An abandoned house whose horrific past is reenacted for those who dare visit; a terrifying trip down the Danube River; a malevolent half-beast creature who abducts a member of a hunting party; and a tale of paranoia, mental deterioration, and all-consuming feelings of doom: Here are four feverish, spine-tingling tales that will chill the blood and make the flesh creep. The collection includes "The Empty House," "The Willows," "The Listener", and "The Wendigo". "The Willows" was the personal favorite story of H. P. Lovecraft, who called it the finest supernatural tale in English literature. Distinguished actor Hugh Ross perfectly captures the chilling atmosphere of Blackwood's writing and the moods of dread and suspense.

Famous Modern Ghost Stories
Summary
Ghosts have always haunted literature, and it seems that they always will. Spectres seem never to wear out or to die, but renew their tissue both of person and of raiment, in extravagant fashion, so that their number increases voluminously and continuously. Today we have ghosts that haunted our ancestors, as well as our own modern revenants, and there appears to be no earthly use trying to banish or exorcise them by such a simple strategy as refusing to believe in them. Since man knows that whether or not he has seen a ghost, presently he will become one, and thus he has become fascinated with the subject. Therefore he creates ghosts, not merely in his own image, but according to his dreams of power. Contents 1. Introduction - "The Imperishable Ghost" by Dorothy Scarborough 2.
