Summary

From the shorelines, hills and crags of ancient lands, tales of twisted creatures, sins against nature and pagan revenant have been passed down from generation to generation. In the 19th and 20th centuries, folklore from Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Cornwall, Brittany and the Isle of Man inspired a new strain of strange short stories, running alongside the Celtic revival movement of art, craft and poetry. In this volume, Johnny Mains dives into the archives of the forgotten to unearth an array of uneasy stories with Celtic folklore at their heart.
