Some of the most hypnotically spooky and unsettling ghost stories ever written have been set in the forests, dak bungalows and hill stations of India and the brooding wilderness of pre-modern Japan. And among the masters of this genre are legendary writers like Rudyard Kipling and Ruskin Bond, and three brilliant storytellers who should be better known: Bithia Mary Croker and Alice Perrinmistresses of the Raj supernaturaland Lafcadio Hearn, who took Japanese culture to the West. This box set brings together four collections of their best ghost stories. A dead woman who comes calling for her husband; a schoolboy who sees two ghostsor perhaps the same ghost twicein a pine forest; an ayah who sings to an invisible baby; a mandarin duck that pursues a hunter; a haunted horse; a phantom rickshaw; a banjo-playing spirit. These and other apparitions float through the gripping, atmospheric tales in this ghostly box set.
