ARGONAUT BOOKS

From the haunting children of 'The Shining' and 'The Grudge' to Neil Gaiman's 'Coraline', the ghostly youth is still one of the most recognized and feared tropes of horror fiction and film. In this spine-tingling new collection, Jen Baker gathers the most chilling tales of hauntings by children, expertly paired with snippets of the folklore and urban legends which inspired them. Truly lost stories return for the first time since their original publication along with nail-biting encounters from masters of the ghost story such as Elizabeth Gaskell, M.R. James and Frances Hodgson Burnett.
