The Peripheral Visions 2-volume series is a unique, award-winning reference collection that includes all of Robert Hood’s 44 ghost stories to date, including three original pieces of fiction. These memorable tales display Hood’s uncanny ability to make the fantastic real, to embrace weirdness and create human characters whose lives – both inner and outer – haunted by mortality, are laid bare and revealed to be our own worst nightmares. Ranging from melancholy reflection on life and death, through disquieting tales of dark humour and vengeance, to chilling visions of ghostly apocalypse.
Hood’s stories are sure to draw you into a terrifying world that in the end is revealed to be irrefutably our own. Though many of these stories draw on the traditions of the past, they are far from traditional in approach.
As you turn each page remember this: not everything here is as it seems. There’s always something more, barely glimpsed, out there on the periphery.
This is Volume 2 of the trade paperback version, comprising the second 3 of the 6 haunted sections of the complete 2-volume series, including 4 illustrations by Nick Stathopoulos.
