The Shining Hand and Other Tales of Terror - Hardcover
This highly sought after collection of horror stories by J.E. Muddock aka "Dick Donovan" has been unavailable since its first appearance in 1889. This new edition features a scholarly essay on Muddock by Bram Stoker Award winning editor John Pelan and gathers together these outstanding stories of the macabre that have previously been found only in the original volume or in scarce anthologies. This book marked an important turning point in the development of the modern ghost story and is a must for any serious collection of weird fiction. This is an expanded edition with the novella "The Prophecy" which was written by Muddock in his later years and published under the Donovan byline in "Chamber's Journal" in 1926. With twenty-three chilling tales spanning over three-hundred pages, there's many hours of chilling reading ahead...
