Ghost Anthology

You know how stuffy those English men's clubs are: "right sort of chap, and all that rot." Now imagine that the very worst sort of interloper forced his way into the exclusive club - a ghost who refuses to leave. And even worse, a ghost who was a failure in life and a failure in his haunting. David Ian Davies offers an enchanting one-man performance of this otherworldly tale.

A GHOST you say?

Until he showed them HOW he helped the poor soul. And what happened next, changed everyone's view of the afterlife.

Nuestras vidas digitales e hiperconectadas tienen al alcance milenios de conocimiento, pero ¿qué sabemos del mundo de los fantasmas? Nosotros hemos cambiado, pero ellos no: simplemente se han adaptado y han encontrado innovadores caminos para abordarnos. Habitan en nuestras aplicaciones informáticas y deambulan por el metaverso del mismo modo que antes se escondían en casas tenebrosas, empeñados en difuminar los límites entre la vida y la muerte y siempre a la caza de nuevas formas de comunicarse, de rondar nuestros recuerdos, de vengarse o de asumir el control de nuestra vida.

This first collection of tales by Rosalie Parker contains eight stories that explore the uncanny in the modern world. As Glen Cavaliero observes in his introduction, "like all good stories of the preternatural, these in The Old Knowledge have a subversive effect." In them, "the world of logical, predictable reality is seen to be at risk from rejected modes of knowledge which can thwart the materialist and victimise those innocents who stumble into another order of reality."

"There are many ways to tell a story... It is a question of choosing the right one." - "Sparks from the Fire" The stories in Sparks from the Fire explore a wide variety of familiar characters and settings, yet there is always something else a shadow world that haunts, disturbs, and threatens. Sons and daughters, mothers and fathers, recluses and lovers all find themselves shifting between realities: the prosaic and the mystical, even between life and death. The horrors and wonders of these parallel existences are often glimpsed, sometimes revealed, and occasionally overwhelm.

Today we have ghosts that haunted our ancestors, as well as our own modern revenants, and there appears to be no earthly use trying to banish or exorcise them by such a simple strategy as refusing to believe in them. Since man knows that whether or not he has seen a ghost, presently he will become one, and thus he has become fascinated with the subject. Therefore he creates ghosts, not merely in his own image, but according to his dreams of power.
