Classic Horror Collection

Prepare to tremble and tremor with this ‘Classic Horror Collection’ from some of fiction’s spookiest of writers.

In ‘The Legend of Sleepy Hollow’ we'll question morals and might amongst scary situations when a schoolmaster takes a liking to a student. We’ll also explore the alluring pull of desire and greed in ‘The Monkey’s Paw’. But be careful what you wish for. You might wake some sleeping souls from the dead…

From discovering the mysterious attempted murder in Edgar Allen Poe's ´The Tell-Tale Heart´ to experiencing strange evil encounters in ‘The Turn of the Screw’, this collection is packed with powerful and petrifying stories.

Taking us on a dark and dangerous one-way ride through sinister, spooky, and suspicious tales, this ‘Classic Horror Collection’ is the perfect companion for fans of ‘The Conjuring’ and ‘The Nun’.

    inflicting a double portion on some little tough wrong-headed, broad-skirted Dutch urchin, who sulked and swelled and grew dogged and sullen beneath the birch. All this he called “doing his duty by their parents;” and he never inflicted a chastisement without following it by the assurance, so consolatory to the smarting urchin, that “he would remember it and thank him for it the longest day he had to live.”

    arms and legs, hands that dangled a mile out of his sleeves, feet that might have served for shovels, and his whole frame most loosely hung together. His head was small, and flat at top, with huge ears, large green glassy eyes, and a long snipe nose, so that it looked like a weather-cock perched upon his spindle neck to tell which way the wind blew. To see him striding along the profile of a hill on a windy day, with his clothes bagging and fluttering about him, one might have mistaken him for the genius of famine descending upon the earth, or some scarecrow eloped from a cornfield.
