Terry Lamsley has long been regarded as one of the most compelling and important authors in the horror and ghost fiction genres, but his work has been extremely difficult to find – until now. This collection brings together ten stories; all of them set in and around the author’s hometown of Derbyshire. In Terry’s fiction, the world we know and the world of something else exist side by side with only the thinnest of lines between them. The characters that inhabit Terry’s work often inadvertently discover that this line is all too easily crossed. Originally published in a 500 copy edition by Ash-Tree Press, Terry Lamsley's Conference with the Dead has long remained almost unobtainable until now.A nominee for the World Fantasy Award, and winner of the International Horror Guild Award, this chilling collection of ghost stories set in England has remained out of print for far too long.
