Phantoms: Haunting Tales from Masters of the Genre

A stunning horror ghost story anthology featuring stories from bestselling authors Joe Hill, Josh Malerman, Paul Tremblay and M.R. Carey

The brightest names in horror showcase a ghastly collection of 18 ghost stories that will have you watching over your shoulder, heart racing at every bump in the night.

  • In "My Life in Politics" by M.R. Carey the spirits of those without a voice refuse to let a politician keep them silent. 
  • In "The Adjoining Room" by A.K. Benedict, a woman finds her hotel neighbor trapped and screaming behind a door that doesn't exist. 
  • George Mann's "The Restoration" sees a young artist become obsessed with returning a forgotten painting to its former glory, even if it kills her. 
  • Laura Purcell's "Cameo" shows that the parting gift of a loved one can have far darker consequences than ever imagined...

These unsettling tales from some of the best modern horror writers will send a chill down your spine like someone has walked over your grave... or perhaps just woken up in their own.
