Spectral Visions

'Spectral Visions: The Collection' is an anthology of Gothic short stories and poetry written, like their C19th predecessors to chill, thrill, shock and startle the reader; sometimes with an element of dark humour thrown in to boot!Peopled by a menagerie of monsters, madmen and malevolents 'Spectral Visions' takes us into the darkest labyrinths of the human and inhuman mind negotiating the path between terror and horror with vertiginous velocity. The anthology is written by some of the brightest young minds embarking on their literary careers alongside writers already established in their respective fields. Read it if you dare but not alone!
