Reviews

A treat for anyone looking for an antidote to the usual saccharine Christmas fayre...inventive and original and very entertaining.

A quick escape from the stresses of Christmas day!

Starting off strongly with [Moores] ownirresistibletake on the Seven Dwarfs all featuring some element of the macabre or paranormal and infused witha robust sense of humour they definitely suit the long, shadowy winter evenings, and its a fun collection if you like to get a little spooked but not entirely grossed-out.

An indulgence for dark winter nights transformed folk tales, folk horrorclassic ghost stories, tales of supernatural revenge a gorgeous collection.
