To celebrate the release of our Self Made Hero book of M. R. James adaptations – Ghost Stories of an Antiquary Vol 1 – we’re going to be counting down to Christmas in true Jamesian style, with a new ghostly image and nugget of info every day.
Day 11: “THE DECORATIONS”
Published in 2005 by Aplenhouse Apparitions in a limited run of 250 books, The Decorations is a Christmas ghost story by “Britain’s greatest living horror writer” (an self confessed Jamsian) Ramsey Campbell.
For those of us not lucky enough to own a copy, the story was republished in the Dark Regions Press collection Holes for Faces.
Moore & Reppion will be introducing a rare screening of two classic films from the BBC’s Ghost Story For Christmas series – The Signalman & Whistle And I’ll Come To You – at FACT Liverpool on Wednesday the 21st of December at 7pm.
The screening is part of Picturehouse’s nationwide A Warning to the Curious: Ghost Stories at Christmas season.
