Описание: Part of a new six-volume series of the best in classic horror, selected by award-winning director of The Shape of Water Guillermo del Toro

Filmmaker and longtime horror literature fan Guillermo del Toro serves as the curator for the Penguin Horror series, a new collection of classic tales and poems by masters of the genre. Included here are some of del Toro's favorites, from Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and Ray Russell's short story "Sardonicus," considered by Stephen King to be "perhaps the finest example of the modern Gothic ever written," to Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House and stories by Ray Bradbury, Joyce Carol Oates, Ted Klein, and Robert E. Howard. Featuring original cover art by Penguin Art Director Paul Buckley, these stunningly creepy deluxe hardcovers will be perfect additions to the shelves of horror, sci-fi, fantasy, and paranormal aficionados everywhere.

The Haunting of Hill House

The classic supernatural thriller by an author who helped define the genre. First published in 1959, Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House has been hailed as a perfect work of unnerving terror. It is the story of four seekers who arrive at a notoriously unfriendly pile called Hill House: Dr. Montague, an occult scholar looking for solid evidence of a "haunting;' Theodora, his lighthearted assistant; Eleanor, a friendless, fragile young woman well acquainted with poltergeists; and Luke, the future heir of Hill House. At first, their stay seems destined to be merely a spooky encounter with inexplicable phenomena. But Hill House is gathering its powers--and soon it will choose one of them to make its own.

Описание: In just two decades--she died in 1965, at the age of forty-eight--Shirley Jackson created an enduring body of weird and magical fiction, one in which a grinning death's head lies just behind the smiling mask of so-called everyday life. Now, in this Library of America volume, Joyce Carol Oates gathers the best of Shirley Jackson's novels and stories for the first time. Here is The Lottery (1949), the classic collection whose world-famous title story is an allegory of violence, ritual, and the madness of crowds. Here too are two bewitching novels: The Haunting of Hill House (1959), the tale of an exquisitely empathetic young woman chosen by a haunted house to be its new tenant, and We Have Always Lived in the Castle (1962), the unrepentant confessions of Miss Merricat Blackwood, a cunning adolescent who has gone to quite unusual extremes to preserve her ideal of family happiness. Rounding out the volume are twenty-one further stories and sketches that go beyond the Gothic to present Jackson in other modes: groundbreaking domestic humorist, keen critic of racial prejudice, and scathing social satirist.
