  If you’re incapable of telling the truth, then ensure you are the Last One To Lie… 
   
  Fear and dread fill Matt Walker’s veins as he returns to his West London apartment. He promised himself things would be different this time, yet here he was again - haunted by the same demons and sins of his past. 
   
  Before long, Lisa and baby George join him in the idyllic village they so hoped would be their fresh start. But all is not as it seems; shadows lurk behind closed doors and Matt is convinced he is being watched. 
   
  Then Lisa makes a discovery which throws her life into turmoil, her world spinning out of control. Little does she know how far-reaching its consequences will be. 
   
  Hannah and Tom Wells, the local neighbourhood watch co-ordinators, were supposed to be their saviours, but it soon becomes clear that danger lurks in their friendly welcome - could their deepest fears be coming true? 
   
  And to their horror, the family they thought they had escaped appeared to be coming back into their lives… 
   
  Did they ever really leave?

  Enter the Wilds Where Nature Breeds Nightmare.
  
  Before H.P. Lovecraft and Stephen King, there was Algernon Blackwood, the undisputed master of "the weird." Blackwood didn't just write ghost stories; he explored the terrifying possibility that the natural world is alive with ancient, indifferent, and often hostile forces. This comprehensive collection brings together every supernatural tale from one of the most influential voices in cosmic horror.
  
  Experience the primal terror of "The Willows," a story Lovecraft himself called the greatest supernatural tale in English literature. Follow the doomed hunting party in "The Wendigo" as they encounter a legend that haunts the frozen North. From the psychic investigations of John Silence to quiet, chilling hauntings, Blackwood's prose transports readers to the threshold of the unknown.
  
  Whether he is describing the whispering reeds of a desolate river or the vast, predatory silence of a deep forest, Blackwood's gift lies in his ability to make the reader feel small against the majesty of the supernatural. This volume is an essential addition to the library of any fan of classic horror, Gothic fiction, or the atmospheric weird.
  
  Hear the call of the wild. Buy "The Complete Supernatural Stories" today and discover the roots of modern terror.

  At some point in our lives we believe that creak, that low moan, that whisper is something unnatural, beyond our comprehension.  And in these stories our instincts are right. We are afraid. And we should be.  Perhaps even terrified.   In this volume our classic authors take different approaches, but the result is inevitably the same. We are hooked by these unknowable forces, our emotions heightened and rattled by the expectation—or shock—of the next few words.
