the Shadow on Wall

The Shadow on the Wall brings together Ruskin Bond''s most chilling works of fright and terror. The twenty-one stories in this book include classics such as "A Face in the Dark'', "The Chakrata Cat'', and "Susanna''s Seven Husbands'', along with a dose of eerie new tales that have never been published before. In "The Shadow on the Wall'', a young writer finds an unlikely first reader in a ghost; "The Doppelgänger'' is a creepy account of beings that occupy two places at once; "Haunted Places'' is a spookyook at the world around us. From horrifying stories of chance encounters with hill station spirits, hauntings in abandoned mansions, malignant and mischievous jinns and shape-shifters, to prets and Mussoorie''s Bhoot-aunty, the twenty-one tales in The Shadow on the Wall showcase Ruskin Bond''s talent as a master of horror fiction.
