Tales for Twilight: Two Hundred Years of Scottish Ghost Stories
by Alistair W.J. KerrFifteen chilling ghost stories from two centuries of great Scottish writers.Tales for Twilight offers a spine-tingling selection of unnerving tales by writers from James Hogg in the early eighteenth century to James Robertson, very much alive in the twenty-first.

The golden age was during the Victorian and Edwardian period, but the ghost story has continued to evolve and remains popular to this day. Includes stories from Sir Walter Scott, George Mackay Brown, Muriel Spark, Margaret Oliphant, Robert Louis Stevenson, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Guy Boothby, Algernon Blackwood, Eileen Bigland, Ronald Duncan, James Robertson and Ian Rankin.Praise for Tales for Twilight &“Flickering candlelight is the best backdrop for optimum appreciation of Tales for Twilight, selected by Alistair Kerr, aficionado of Scottish ghost stories.&” —Michael Carter, Tablet &“A wonderful read for anyone who enjoys feeling the hairs rise on the back of their neck. . . . An excellent collection of enjoyable ghost stories [and] a fine sampler of the work of some of the very best authors Scotland has produced.&” —Undiscovered Scotland
