We are keeping it spooky as heck this October with a fantastic collection by folk horror author M.R. James. The group discussion will take place at Maze Books on Thursday, October 30th (Devil’s Night) at 6:30pm. Copies of the book are available at Maze Books and via our bookshop affiliate. There is no cost to attend the discussion.
About the Author and Book
“M. R. James is widely regarded as the father of the modern ghost story, and his tales have influenced horror writers from H. P. Lovecraft to Stephen King. First published in the early 1900s, they have never been out of print, and are recognized as classics of the genre. This collection contains some of his most chilling tales, including A View from a Hill, Rats, A School Story, The Ash Tree, and The Story of a Disappearance and an Appearance,” (Goodreads).
