Tales of the Weird
July–December 2024
British Library Tales of the Weird
The Tales of the Weird series began in 2018 with the publication of five story collections, and it has been gathering a cult fanbase throughout the years since, reviving unjustly neglected stories from the realms of classic gothic, supernatural and horror fiction to terrorise and beguile the minds of modern readers.
With single-author collections from masters of the macabre such as Ambrose Bierce, Eleanor Scott and Algernon Blackwood, and thematic anthologies on topics as disturbing and disparate as the botanical gothic, occult detection, uncanny mathematics and the edible weird, you’re sure to find something new to be afraid of in these striking volumes. Each anthology is adorned by original artwork and contains a newly commissioned introduction as well as fascinating notes by expert editors.
In 2023 a strand of novels joined the expertly curated anthologies of the series. In June 2024 the British Library published the 50th title in the series, the deliciously sinister Deadly Dolls, and in September the Library’s explorations of the multifarious world of the Weird will reach new heights as it joins forces with another hugely influential proponent of the strange and uncanny, Weird Walk, to publish the rambling-themed anthology The Haunted Trail.
Still enthralling new fans and delivering rare material to the devotees of classic uncanny fiction, the Tales of the Weird series is now a cornerstone of today’s weird publishing scene; its continuing success a testament to the enduring allure of the supernatural and macabre.
This catalogue contains information on forthcoming titles and backlist for the series, along with a section listing the titles in the hardback sister series, the British Library Gilded Nightmares.

The Human Chord
Algernon Blackwood, with an introduction by Mike Ashley
Paperback £9.99
ISBN 9780712355414
208 pages, 190 x 130 mm
Publishing July 2024
Algernon Blackwood (1869–1951)
was an English author, broadcasting narrator and journalist who published over 230 short stories and 47 books in his lifetime. He was deeply interested in occult and mystic studies, and powers that lie beyond normal human recognition. His regular appearances narrating stories on radio and early television programmes garnered him the epithet of ‘The Ghost Man’.
“The Sound builds; sound destroys; and invisible sound-vibrations affect concrete matter. For all sounds produce forms – the forms that correspond to them, as you shall now see…”
When Robert Spinrobin answers an advert seeking a tenor singer with a grasp of ancient languages, he soon finds himself summoned to the Welsh mountain home of the exclergyman Philip Skale. Here Skale, the housekeeper Mrs. Mawle and her niece, Miriam, have been pursuing a new science, using sound and song to intone the true names of people and matter –and recording the uncanny phenomena conjured through this naming ritual.
But there is a question humming at the heart of Skale’s plans: what if the quartet could use harmony to harness a forbidden name beyond the preserve of humanity? As the singers gain momentum, a gathering storm of disastrous cosmic consequences glowers on the horizon in this original and fastpaced novel, first published in 1910.
Eerie East Anglia
Fearful Tales of Field and Fen
Edited by Edward Parnell
Paperback £9.99
ISBN 9780712355711
320 pages, 190 x 130 mm
Publishing August 2024
Edward Parnell is the author of the award-winning Ghostland: In Search of a Haunted Country (2019), which was shortlisted for the PEN Ackerley Prize 2020 for memoir and autobiography, as well as the Norfolkset novel The Listeners (2014). He has taught at the University of East Anglia and Cambridge University.
A seaside honeymoon holiday is plagued by the mystery of bells which never stop ringing – and the uncanny force which answers the call. The echoes of undying druidic rites spell disaster at a Norfolk golf course. An ancient relic found on the Suffolk coast summons a relentless spectral pursuer to its discoverer.
Welcome to East Anglia, one of the heartlands of British strange and ghostly fiction whose mind-stretching expanses, wide, yawning skies and disorientating tidal fens have bewitched generations of writers.
Unearthing seventeen short tales set in Norfolk, Essex, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire from the 1900s to the 2010s, Edward Parnell’s selection unites eternal classics by M. R. James, Robert Aickman and Marjorie Bowen with modern chillers from Daisy Johnson and Matthew Holness to offer a sweeping view across the dark horizons of East Anglia’s eeriest literature.
The Haunted Trail
Classic Tales of the Rambling Weird
Edited by Weird Walk
Paperback £9.99
ISBN 9780712355810
288 pages, 190 x 130 mm
Publishing September 2024
Weird Walk began as three friends walking a prehistoric trackway across southern England. Since then, by walking the ancient paths, visiting the sacred sites, and immersing themselves in Britain’s folklore and customs, they have worked to promote the magic at the heart of rambling through publishing, music and events.
I began to think that perhaps, after all, the change in the Hill was my fancy. Then, as I looked, the Hill lurched.
A remarkable blood-soaked stranger upends the lives of two Lake District ramblers; a lonely tavern offers its guests something much more disturbing than a post-walk pint; a night hike on the Fens takes a terrifying turn when the fog rolls in.
From the darkly humorous to the chillingly sinister, tales of the haunted trail are as old as time. We have always travelled on foot and our worst fears have often accompanied us. Whether walking for pleasure or necessity, the ramblers of these classic stories trip across unseen boundaries, plotting routes towards the numinous, the uncanny and the plain evil.
Featuring fourteen pieces from an intrepid band of writers including Robert Aickman, Charlotte Riddell, M. R. James and many more, this new anthology is a haunting trail mate, guiding you into the wild unknown.
The Weird Tales of Dorothy K. Haynes
Edited by Craig Lamont with a foreword by Johnny Mains
Paperback £9.99
ISBN 9780712355766
288 pages, 190 x 130 mm
Publishing October 2024
Dorothy K. Haynes (1918–1987) was a Scottish novelist, journalist and short story writer who came to specialise in the ghostly and weird tale. Her impressive collection Thou Shalt Not Suffer a Witch was published in 1949, and she became a regular contributor to the legendary Fontana and Pan horror anthologies in the 1970s.
The fabric of Dorothy K. Haynes’ weird fiction is truly the stuff of nightmares, where horrors cruel and mundane are interwoven with threads of dark fairy folklore and twisted witchcraft to deliver heady supernatural thrills.
In this new collection, Haynes expert Craig Lamont presents the essential classics of her strange storytelling alongside rarities from obscure anthologies and magazines – and five stories exhumed from the family archive which have never been published before.
Featuring illustrations by Mervyn Peake from the Library’s collections, this volume knits the irresistible pull of Haynes’ unique brand of the uncanny with a rare opportunity to discover new material from one of the great weavers of Scottish horror.
The Haunted Vintage
Marjorie Bowen, with an introduction by Michael Dirda
Paperback £9.99
ISBN 9780712355865
304 pages, 190 x 130 mm
Publishing November 2024
Marjorie Bowen (1885–1952) was the principal penname used by Margaret Campbell de Vere Long, a prolific English author renowned for her novels and short stories exploring historical romance, crime fiction and the weird and macabre.
It was nearly dark in the cloisters; Lally looked up at the boar’s head, grotesque in the dimness. “A strange thing to carve in a Christian church,” he thought.
Following a romantic scandal in the Duke’s court, Lally Duchene is dismissed to a new post at a monastery turned asylum nestled in the wine country of the Rhineland. Unphased by local superstitions about ghosts and nixies in the forests, his days slip by in a haze.
But something is stirring in this woodland idyll. Among the patients is a woman possessing an otherworldly aura. Phantasms disturb the night, and the vestiges of a sinister paganism leer from beneath holy facades. As the wine harvest approaches and Lally’s past catches up with him at the monastery, eternal forces are awakening—and a carnage of ancient rites draws near.
First published in 1921, this full-bodied tale of mythical weirdness in nineteenthcentury Germany is a vintage to be savoured.
Summoned to the Séance
Spirit Tales from Beyond the Veil
Edited by Emily Vincent
Final cover TBC
Paperback £9.99
ISBN 9780712355919
288 pages, 190 x 130 mm
Publishing December 2024
Emily Vincent is a researcher and writer based at the University of Birmingham, whose specialisms include spiritualism, occult detection, nineteenth-century ghost stories, and pandemics in Victorian literature.
“Keep still! Keep still! Don’t break the circle!”
Through the electric silence around the séance table, the rapping of an unknown hand spells out a horrible revelation. A play with the planchette invites a diabolical visitor to Radley Manor. A medium’s summoning of a lost child pitches them into mortal peril.
In the mid-nineteenth century, public fascination with spiritualism surged, bringing forth a new literary craze for stories of ghost and demon summonings and communications with the dead via a medium.
Reviving spectral narratives by Arthur Conan Doyle, H. G. Wells and Florence Marryat alongside lost classics of the genre, from the birth of the movement through to its last days of popularity in the twentieth century, this new collection invites you to take a seat at the fragile threshold between the mortal world and the chilling realms of the dead.

The Ghost Stories of Wilkie Collins
Edited by Xavier Aldana Reyes
Hardback £14.99
ISBN 9780712355964
256 pages, 210 x 149 mm
Publishing September 2024
Wilkie Collins (1824–1889) was an English playwright and author, most famous today for his classic sensation novel, The Woman in White, and The Moonstone, which is considered one of the first detective novels in English literature. Aside from these longer works, Collins also wrote numerous short tales for magazines and anthologies, often straying into the macabre world of the ghost story.
Speechless, with no expression in her face, with no noise following her footfall, she came closer and closer –stopped – and slowly raised the knife.
Vengeful spirits, mysterious revenants, haunted objects and the odd benevolent phantom stalk the pages of Wilkie Collins’s short fiction, and yet his reputation as one of the great Victorian sensation and detective novelists has long overshadowed his inventive contributions to the ghost story genre.
Published to celebrate the bicentenary of Collins’s birth, this new anthology presents eight tales of the unearthly to celebrate this lesser-known side of the writer’s imaginative and groundbreaking fiction. Opening with a new introduction exploring Collins’s talents for pushing the boundaries of genre writing, the classic stories collected here show a master storyteller at work as they pulse with awful visions, mortal dread and the strange wiles of restless ghosts.
Halloweird
Classic Stories from the Season of Samhain
Edited by Johnny Mains
Hardback £16.99
ISBN 9780712355025
320 pages, 210 x 149 mm Publishing October 2024
Johnny Mains is a British Fantasy Award-winning editor and author who specialises in recovering “lost” supernatural works from the archives. He was the Project Editor of the 50th anniversary re-issue of the inaugural The Pan Book of Horror Stories, and he has edited Celtic Weird and Scotland the Strange for British Library Publishing.
In the flickering candlelight of pitchy Autumn nights, malevolent spirits crowd the gloom and weird, terrible things come to pass. Ever since the days of the druidic Samhain, storytellers have observed the tradition of spinning tall, twisted tales of dark magic, spectral stalkings and unearthly creatures to mark this festival’s uniquely frightening aura.
Collecting up a haunting haul of tales and a handful of weird seasonal poetry from across the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, this new volume celebrates the riotous weird of the Halloween season through the works of legendary ghost story writers such as Edith Wharton and Elizabeth Walter alongside rare literary treats, rediscovered by Johnny Mains and returning to print for the first time since their original publication.
