Christmas Tales of Terror by Chris Priestley

Nothing annoys me quite like a character who squanders good opportunities for fictional fun. I mean, ok, fine, maybe his mom did just die, but, jeez, can he tear himself away from his pity party for ONE SECOND and focus on the spooky hauntings? Please? This is a nail-biting story of hauntings and terror by the master of the genre, Chris Priestley But little can prepare him for the solitude of the house itself as he is kept from his guardian and finds himself spending the Christmas holiday wandering the silent corridors of the house seeking distraction.īut lonely doesn't mean alone, as Michael soon realises that the house and its grounds harbour many secrets, dead and alive, and Michael is set the task of unravelling some of the darkest secrets of all. His arrival on the first night suggests something is not quite right when he sees a woman out in the frozen mists, standing alone in the marshes. Until he is invited to spend Christmas with his guardian in a large and desolate country house. One that would be unbelievable if it weren't true! Michael's parents are dead and he imagines that he will stay with the kindly lawyer, executor of his parents' will. Michael Vyner recalls a terrible story, one that happened to him.
