Description
A remarkable blood-soaked stranger upends the lives of two Lake District ramblers; a lonely tavern offers its guests something much more disturbing than a post-walk pint; a night hike on the Fens takes a terrifying turn when the fog rolls in.
From the darkly humorous to the chillingly sinister, tales of the haunted trail are as old as time. We have always travelled on foot, and our worst fears have often accompanied us. Whether walking for pleasure or necessity, the ramblers of these classic stories trip across unseen boundaries, plotting routes towards the numinous, the uncanny, and the plain evil.
Featuring fifteen pieces from an intrepid band of writers, including Robert Aickman, Charlotte Riddell, M. R. James, and many more, this new anthology is a haunting trail mate, guiding you into the wild unknown.

About the Author
Weird Walk began as three friends walking an ancient trackway across southern England wearing incorrect footwear. Since then, by walking the ancient paths, visiting the sacred sites, and immersing themselves in the folklore and customs of the British Isles, they have worked to promote the magic at the heart of rambling via their zine, social media, music and podcast. Their self-titled book, Weird Walk: Wanderings and Wonderings through the British Ritual Year was published in 2023.
