Algernon Blackwood continues to demonstrate the power of his words as he shocks and disturbs in this collection of supernatural tales. In a world where the line between sanity and insanity becomes increasingly blurred, tales such as 'Violence' demonstrate the mind's ability to deceive itself to a horrifying end, whilst 'The Terror of the Twins' portrays the destructive power of hate from beyond the grave. In tales where a happy ending is hard to find, prepare yourself for a journey into the darkest elements of the human psyche.
