Offering a bounty of strange and gothic stories set in Cornwall, Cornish Horrors explores the rich folklore and traditions of this Celtic nation in a journey through mines, mythology, shipwrecks, seascapes, and the coming of the railway and tourism.
With tales by horror luminaries such as Bram Stoker, Poe and Mary Elizabeth Braddon, this edition also features a host of underappreciated writers such as F. Tennyson Jesse and Margery Williams – said to be a strong influence on Lovecraft’s writing.
