Someone on this board last year introduced us to Hingston & Olsen and their Ghost Box.
This year they have another with a couple of authors you may recognize:
Less apple, more razor blade.
The Ghost Box returns, like a mummy or a batman, to once again make your pupils dilate and the hair on your arms stand straight up—it’s another collection of individually bound scary stories, edited and introduced by comedian and spooky specialist Patton Oswalt.
Ghost Box II includes stories by:
• Gertrude Atherton
• Louisa Baldwin
• Robert Hugh Benson
• Tananarive Due
• Harlan Ellison
• Janet Fox
• Patricia Highsmith
• Joe Hill
• Stephen King
• Julius Long
• Michael Shea
Like last year, each handmade box features a matte-black finish, an iridescent colour-shifting foil stamp on top, and a magnetized lid. The booklets once again have debossed design details and are bound with brass staples. This year’s edition also includes a ribbon bookmark, of which we’re pretty fond.
“Because when we’re terrified about the enormity of the universe’s indifference, and our smallness in the face of it, we tell stories. When we’re powerless to shape and control our fear, we tell stories. When we feel alone, we tell stories.”
