Casebook of Carnacki The Ghost-Finder

Edited with an Introduction by David Stuart Davies. `I saw something terrible rising up through the middle of the `defence`. It rose with a steady movement. I saw it pale and huge through the whirling funnel of cloud - a monstrous pallid snout rising out of that unknowable abyss. It rose higher and higher. Through a thinning of the cloud I saw one small eye... a pig`s eye with a sort of vile understanding shining at the back of it`. Thomas Carnacki is a ghost finder, an Edwardian psychic detective, investigating a wide range of terrifying hauntings presented in the nine stories in this complete collection of his adventures. Encountering such spine-chilling phenomena as `The Whistling Room`, the life-threatening dangers of the phantom steed in `The Horse of the Invisible` and the demons from the outside world in `The Hog`, Carnacki is constantly challenged by spiritual forces beyond our knowledge. To complicate matters, he encounters human skullduggery also. Armed with a camera, his Electric Pentacle and various ancient tomes on magic, Carnacki faces the various dangers his supernatural investigations present with great courage.
