These remote islands of the Hebrides are a continuation of the mountains of the Western Highlands reaching far out to sea. For the most part they are barren projections, covered with machair, peat, rock and the vestiges of thousands of years of habitation.One of these projections, Beinn Dornie, a sister mountain of Beinn Dhubh, Black Mountain, on Harris, forms the island of Dorney about two miles west of the larger Isle of Harris. It is late winter, a miserably wet, cold, and windy time when even the warm peat fires fail to take the damp out of the stone dwellings. The only savior is the Dorney single malt made at the island's ancient distillery.Marjorie Collins joins forces with childhood heartthrob, Patrick Hayes, now an Anglican priest, in a bizarre struggle with smugglers, pirates, ghosts and surreptitiously with Lucifer himself. Lucifer appears to have emerged from a grotesque painting by a demented artist, and both of Marjorie's parents are murdered while chasing Lucifer to the island of Dorney. What would attract the devil to this howling, storm-swept speck in the North Atlantic? Patrick and Marjorie find themselves in a race to uncover the evil of the Devil's Lair in time to save the islanders from death and destruction.

Book Synopsis The Mammoth Book of Folk Horror by : Stephen Jones
Download or read book The Mammoth Book of Folk Horror written by Stephen Jones and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-09-07 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to a landscape of ancient evil . . . with stories by masters of horror Arthur Machen, Algernon Blackwood, H. P. Lovecraft, M. R. James, Ramsey Campbell, Storm Constantine, Christopher Fowler, Alison Littlewood, Kim Newman, Reggie Oliver, Michael Marshall Smith, Karl Edward Wagner, and more! The darkness that endures beneath the earth . . . the disquiet that lingers in the woodland surrounding a forgotten path . . . those ancient traditions and practices that still cling to standing stone circles, earthworks, and abandoned buildings; elaborate rituals that invoke elder gods or nature deities; the restless spirits and legendary creatures that remain connected to a place or object, or exist in deep wells and lonely pools of water, waiting to ensnare the unwary traveler . . . These concepts have been the archetypes of horror fiction for decades, but in recent years they have been given a name: Folk Horror. This type of storytelling has existed for more than a century. Authors Arthur Machen, Algernon Blackwood, H. P. Lovecraft, and M. R. James all published fiction that had it roots in the notion of the supernatural being linked to objects or places “left behind.” All four writers are represented in this volume with powerful, and hopefully unfamiliar, examples of their work, along with newer exponents of the craft such as Ramsey Campbell, Storm Constantine, Christopher Fowler, Alison Littlewood, Kim Newman, Reggie Oliver, and many others. Illustrated with the atmospheric photography of Michael Marshall Smith, the stories in The Mammoth Book of Folk Horror tap into an aspect of folkloric tradition that has long been dormant, but never quite forgotten, while the depiction of these forces as being in some way “natural” in no way detracts from the sense of nameless dread and escalating horror that they inspire . . .
