About This Book
How do you like your weird Christmas tales? Is gathering round the fire with delicious food in a country house a key component? Or do you require nothing more than snow and ice and chilling encounters? As a character in one of our featured stories says: 'Oh dear, here's Christmas again. Isn't it awful! I'm going to bed. I shall sleep, and I hope dream, until this dreadful thing is over'. Perhaps this character wouldn't enjoy some of the more conventional tales in this volume; but with this third entry of festive ghost stories in the *Tales of the Weird* series we also bring together some less traditional tales with a wintry theme. The tales featured in this collection present the very height of the season, from a snowy mountain ascent to a chilling encounter on the ice. The stories in this collection, presented in chronological order, were published from 1893 to 1974 and feature some writers who may be immediately familiar. Dames Daphne du Maurier and Muriel Spark are household names. However, of Lettice Galbraith and Frederick Manley we know very little. Bringing both the well-known and undiscovered authors gives us a rich tapestry of winter stories.
