So hashtag time! Here are a few of my favourite horror/dark fantasy/weird writers. Let's start with the old guard, i.e. pre-WW2. Most of these are dab hands at pagan or antiquarian horror, which are my favourite types usually:

Just read ‘The Green Room’ by Walter de la Mare, 1930. A highly effective, quite traditional ghost story – who is the revenant, and why can't she rest? The setting is a secondhand bookshop with three open rooms: the shop proper; a back parlour where some special rarities are kept; and an empty upper bedroom. There's such a strong sense of how these rooms look, smell and feel. Of the dust and damp.

Now reading ‘Out of the Deep’ by Walter de la Mare, 1923. I'm not big on Folio Society editions generally but this 1956 collection of some of his ghost stories has great illustrations by Barnett Freedman.

KUUNTELIJAT
Walter de la Mare(1873-1956)

"Onko ketään täällä" sanoi Matkaaja;
koputtaen kuun valaisemalle ovelle;
ja hänen hevosensa hiljaisuudessa
