Some doors should remain closed. Some reflections should never smile back. And some stories are best left unread after midnight...

Within these pages, a drunken roadkill cleaner discovers that some bodies refuse to burn; a Victorian doctor receives an unforgettable late-night visitor; and a young woman begins to fear that sleep itself is trying to crush her.

Four friends return to the scene of a terrible event to discover the past is very much alive, while an asylum inmate insists he is perfectly sane – despite the mounting evidence to the contrary. A carefree holiday in Cornwall becomes a nightmare beneath the water, and a Halloween celebration attracts some decidedly unexpected guests.

Elsewhere, artificial intelligence reaches beyond the grave, a childhood terror waits patiently in the mirror, and a wedding guest must venture into the dungeons beneath an ancient castle. There are deadly creatures lurking in a Scottish loch, teenagers dabbling with mystic arts and a model railway, a well-intentioned idea that takes a diabolical turn, and Lucifer waiting patiently on a decaying seaside pier.

And if a strange little boy ever warns you not to step on a crack, you might want to listen.

Fifteen unsettling tales. Fifteen reasons to keep the lights on.
