Hamilton Macallister - The Lady Who Didn't Waste Words

As the train flickers in and out of the tunnels, a man grows increasingly ill-at-ease with the strange woman who shares his carriage. She rarely speaks, but what the man does not realize is that he too must choose his words carefully - to avoid diabolical consequences . . . Pan Macmillan are proud to present a brand new reissue of the first ever edition of The Pan Book of Horror Stories. Fiendish, fantastic and downright chilling, these tales were originally selected for Pan by legendary horror anthologist Herbert van Thal. Fifty years on, they are as compelling, evocative and macabre as ever. Highlighted by a new introduction from Johnny Mains, 'A Brief History of the Horrors', the legacy of this astonishing collection - that became a defining influence on the genre - is self-evident. We have made an exclusive few available digitally, so choose your next nightmare here . . .
