Terror Tales of Wales

I'm delighted to say that my short story THE OFFSPRING will be included in TERROR TALES OF WALES, the next instalment of the TERROR TALES series - a collection of regional British horror anthologies edited by bestselling author and screenwriter Paul Finch.

I'm already a big fan of the series, so have a story included in such a great collection with so many true masters of the horror genre is a big deal for me. A huge thank you to Paul for the opportunity.

The book, which will be released in June, is available to pre-order now on the Gray Friar website. Here's the back-cover blurb.

Wales – ‘Land of my Fathers’, cradle of poetry, song and mythic rural splendour. But also a scene of oppression and tragedy, where angry spirits stalk castle and coal mine alike, death-knells sound amid fogbound peaks, and dragons stir in bottomless pools …


The headless spectre of Kidwelly
The sea terror off Anglesey
The soul stealer of Porthcawl
The blood rites at Abergavenny
The fatal fruit of Criccieth
The dark serpent of Bodalog
The Christmas slaughter at Llanfabon

And many more chilling tales by Stephen Volk, Tim Lebbon, Simon Clark, Priya Sharma, John Llewellyn Probert and other award-winning masters and mistresses of the macabre.

Previous books in the series include -  TERROR TALES OF THE LAKE DISTRICTTERROR TALES OF THE COTSWOLDSTERROR TALES OF EAST ANGLIA, TERROR TALES OF LONDON and, my personal favourite, TERROR TALES OF THE SEASIDE.
