This collection gathers together classics such as Dickens' A Christmas Carol, alongside stories from writers working today, exploring many ways in which this holiday can become dark and horrifying, from ancient Yuletide demons and vengeful Christmas trees to haunted baubles and a different side to Santa....

Christmas, with its long dark nights, wintry forest walks and visceral memories, teases at the imagination in stories brought together here in a companion volume to the Christmas Gothic collection.

Description

Time-honoured literary tradition leaves us with bountiful stories of gothic chills and festive fear, tales of the dark, moody, ghastly and ghostly.

Christmas Horror Short Stories is a deluxe edition, printed on silver, matt laminated, gold and silver foil stamped, embossed.
