Ghost Story: the acclaimed novel from the co-author of The Talisman, Black House and Other Worlds Than These

Peter Straub

'The best thing of its kind since Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House'
Newsweek

In the sleepy town of Milburn, New York, four old men gather to tell each other stories: some true, some made-up, all of them frightening. A simple pastime to divert themselves from their quiet lives.

But one story is coming back to haunt them and their small town. A tale of something they did long ago. A wicked mistake. A horrifying accident. And they are about to learn that no one can bury the past forever . . .

Ghost Story is number one New York Times-bestselling author Peter Straub's classic tale of horror, secrets and the dangerous ghosts of the past.
