Alexander Penrose had a simple idea. He wanted a home for himself and his family, and when he found a beautiful plot of land going cheap in the English countryside, he could see no earthly reason not to buy it. Sometimes, just sometimes, there’s a reason land is cheap. Hob House and its terror-filled halls weave their way from one century to the next. From the reign of George III to the modern day, meet the poor souls who were fated to become its inhabitants in life... and sometimes in death.

Alistair Martin is a devoted husband, loving father and the lord of an Essex country house in the early 20th century. He is also a collector of rare and unusual books, and after making his latest acquisition he begins to experience strange and disturbing dreams. How far will Alistair go to determine the connection between the dreams and his new book, and what is the sinister secret of the Family Album?

Is there something after death? Ever since the passing of his beloved wife, Morgan Gower would earnestly like to believe yes. Bricked up and abandoned in the labyrinth of the London Underground system lay the remains of Down Street Station.

But some questions are better off left unanswered, perhaps, and sometimes a door that’s locked should never be opened.

Featuring stories by Sarah Parry, Craig Charlesworth, Jodie van de Wetering, Hannah G. Parry, Hamish Crawford, Kevin Mason, Simon Blake, Greg Maughan, Robert Mammone, Richard Peeves & Matt Tovey.
