About the book

A folk horror anthology of 10 terrifying mythical creatures that lurk between England's borders, from some of the country's leading authors. Presented in a beautifully illustrated hardback with sprayed edges. From time immemorial, the landscapes of England have stoked the flames of imagination, in which new and evolving terrors have been forged. For the Romans, England was a fog-bound half-mythical island at the edge of the world, a land of terrifying wonders. For Geoffrey of Monmouth it was a place in which giants resided. Glidas saw a sinful island abandoned by God and ravaged by divine judgement, whilst Bede saw a chosen land of miracles and divine intervention. Covering all four corners of this green and unpleasant land, these 10 short stories explore the rich mythology, folklore and urban legend that flourishes here. From ancient forests and the things that lurk in their shadows, to desolate moorland, lakes and cities, these authors will take you on a journey of discovery and introduce you to creatures that will haunt your steps eternally. Lucy Rose, Ramsey Campbell, Leigh Radford, Tobi Coventry, Matt Hill, Dan Coxon, Matt Wesolowki, and more to be confirmed!
