H. Russell Wakefield stands tall among the writers of the literary ghost story. His tales have something of M. R. James' influence in them, but they are grittier than James' stories; the entities and antagonists even more disturbing.
Most of Wakefield's output had been out of print for decades until Ash-Tree Press reprinted his work in the late `90s and early `00s in the form of exceptionally fine hardcover editions. Unfortunately, these were limited to small print runs, and most are now hard to find. Enter the eBook!
The Kindle edition of They Return at Evening works well. A table of contents links to the individual stories, and the original cover art from the Ash-Tree reprint is included.
If you appreciate creepy tales of vengeful ghosts and demons, They Return at Evening likely has something you'll (shudderingly) enjoy.
