<p>‘The 20th century horror story’s dark and baroque prince’ Stephen King</p> <p>‘These tales of horror are in the true gothic tradition … full of hinted terrors and unholy stenches. They are something very much out of the ordinary, a real collector’s piece for connoisseurs of the unusual! Lovers of the macabre, the sinister, and the uncanny, take note.’ Guardian’</p> <p>‘Horror against which there is neither defence nor refuge … there is in his work something of lasting appeal’ Time Out</p>
