Fellstones takes its name from seven objects on the village green. It’s where Paul Dunstan was adopted by the Staveleys after his parents died in an accident for which he blames himself. The way the Staveleys tried to control him made him move away and change his name. Why were they obsessed with a strange song he seemed to have made up as a child?
Now their daughter Adele has found him. By the time he discovers the cosmic truth about the stones, he may be trapped. There are other dark secrets he’ll discover, and memories to confront. The Fellstones dream, but they’re about to waken.

A brilliant collection of stories by one of the masters of horror.


Not all companions are friendly. There are many that you most definitely do not want to see. When Elaine was working late at the office, she thought she was all alone. But something sinister was in the elevator shaft…working its way to her floor. Miles, too, thought he was alone in his new house, the house of a murderer, but he, too, had an unwanted companion. And Knox will never forget what was waiting for him in the dense fog.

Come and meet all of these companions and more in this chilling collection of horror tales by award-winning master of terror Ramsey Campbell. That clawing sound you hear, the haunting singing, the moving shadow—they all mean that something is waiting to make your acquaintance.

Contains “The Companion”, the story Stephen King called “one of the three finest horror stories I have ever read”.

Ramsey Campbell's twilight world of back streets and bedsits, decaying inner cities and suburban streets is like our world. The people are like you and me.

But when you are alone there, you see strange sights: phantom hands, dogs that will not die, vampire moths, and the vengeful ghosts of children.

This book contains your worst fears . . . or your darkest fantasies.

Dark Feasts presents the best of Ramsey Campbell's collected and uncollected stories. It includes 'The Chimney' (winner of the World Fantasy Award, 1978), 'In the Bag' (winner of the British Fantasy Award for best short story, 1978), 'Mackintosh Willy' (joint winner of the World Fantasy Award, 1980) and 'The Companion', of which Stephen King wrote ' . . . maybe the best horror tale to be written in English in the last thirty years'.

Anticipada por notables precedentes (Lord Dunsany, Ambrose Bierce, R. W. Chambers, A. Machen, Algernon Blackwood) y enriquecida posteriormente por otros escritores, corresponde sin embargo a HOWARD PHILLIPS LOVECRAFT (1890-1937) el papel más importante en la invención de LOS MITOS DE CTHULHU, ciclo de narraciones de horror cósmico ambientadas en mundos primigenios de caos y espanto. El presente volumen, prologado y seleccionado por Rafael Llopis, ofrece una completa panorámica del desarrollo de los mitos y reúne las piezas fundamentales en la configuración de ese singular e inquietante universo que remueve en el interior del lector profundos terrores atávicos.
