Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Originally published in 1928, They Return at Evening collects thirteen ghost stories that helped shape modern supernatural fiction. With a refined, often chilling style, Wakefield moves beyond traditional Victorian ghosts to depict a more psychological and modern form of horror-quiet, civili…zed, and deeply unsettling. These stories span cursed houses, haunted golf courses, and spectral telephones, balancing eerie understatement with sudden shocks. "The Red Lodge," "He Cometh and He Passeth By," and "The Seventeenth Hole at Duncaster," are now regarded as classics of the genre. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
