Condizione: Nuevo. Adscrito al género de la ghost story, que surge en plena Inglaterra victoriana para establecer los cimientos del moderno cuento de terror, Amyas Northcote es un autor casi desconocido en su propio país, Inglaterra. A ello contribuyeron por un lado su prematuro fallecimiento en 1923 con 58 años y su aún más exigua producción literaria compuesta exclusivamente por los catorce relatos que componen el volumen que ofrecemos por primera vez en España. En compañía de fantasmas (In Ghostly Company) fue publicado por primera vez en 1921 por John Lane pasando totalmente desapercibido hasta su rescate en la colección Tales of Mystery & Supernatural de Wordsworth Edition en 2010.

Synopsis: Amyas Northcote's In Ghostly Company is a rare and splendid collection of strange and disturbing tales from the golden age of ghost stories. His style is akin to that of the master of the genre M.R. James: it is measured and insidiously suggestive, producing unnerving chills rather than shocks and gasps. Northcote's tales make the reader unsettled and uneasy. This is partly due to the fact that the hauntings or strange occurrences take place in natural or mundane surroundings - surroundings familiar to the reader but never before thought of as unusual or threatening.
