The Blackwood Journals

Six volumes of gothic horror. Start with Volume 1, Ashcombe Manor.

  1. Volume 1

    Ashcombe Manor

    The mirror should have stayed broken. Dr Blackwood arrives to treat a mute boy who writes things no child should know — and finds something ancient feeding in the dark.

  2. Volume 2

    Eleanor Vale

    Beneath the South Bridge Vaults of Victorian Edinburgh, something has been waiting. Eleanor's name has appeared on the final page of her sister's journal, in ink that is still moving.

  3. Volume 3

    St Kilda

    Some islands remember. This one hungers. The fog never lifts. The mirrors show futures. And the island has been preparing a bride.

  4. Volume 4

    Red Wake

    The barque Red Wake slips into a fog that does not lift. The logbook rewrites itself. Days repeat. The ship is not merely lost. It is alive. It has purpose.

  5. Volume 5

    A Game of Fortune

    Boston, 1834. A mirror carried from the Salem witch trials, now awakened and hungry. Every debt demands payment. Some accounts are written in flesh.

  6. Volume 6

    Murder Castle

    Chicago, 1893. Dr Harrow believes that to document precisely is to protect. He checks into Holmes's hotel with his journals and his methodology. He is wrong.
