What can be wrong in a book edited by Stephen Jones and featuring Algernon Blackwood, H. P. Lovecraft, M. R. James​, Ramsey Campbell, Storm Constantine, Christopher Fowler, Alison Littlewood, and Kim Newman?
Nothing as they're all master storyteller and their story can always scare me.
So please go and read it. It's a very huge book but this means a lot of fun.
Highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Edelweiss for this ARC, all opinions are mine

A good collection of folk horror stories with some classics as well as some more contemporary authors. As with all collections there are some good and some bad tales.
