Eerie East Anglia: Fearful Tales of Field and Fen

Eerie East Anglia: Fearful Tales of Field and Fen

A seaside honeymoon holiday is plagued by the mystery of bells which never stop ringing – and the uncanny force which answers the call. The echoes of undying druidic rites spell disaster at a Norfolk golf course. An ancient relic found on the Suffolk coast summons a  relentless spectral  pursuer to its discoverer.  

Welcome to East Anglia, one of the heartlands of British strange and ghostly fiction whose mind-stretching expanses, wide, yawning skies and disorientating tidal fens have bewitched generations of writers.  

Unearthing seventeen short tales set in Norfolk, Essex,  Suffolk and Cambridgeshire from the 1900s to the 2010s, Edward Parnell’s selection unites eternal classics by M. R. James, Robert  Aickman and Marjorie Bowen with modern chillers from Daisy Johnson and Matthew Holness to offer a sweeping view across the dark horizons of East Anglia’s eeriest  literature.
