The Winter of Haunted Hearts

By Judith Vila

Telling spooky stories around the fireplace was a beloved Victorian Christmas tradition.

Now, you can indulge in this delightfully chilling practice with 10 original short stories featuring a gothic mood and mysterious magic in historical settings, with a pinch of haunting and horror-all set against the bleak, isolating cold of winter.

Throughout these stories shines a single thread: the theme of love in its different guises-devoted, dangerous, grieving, or redeemed. There are magical objects, ghosts and revenants, a vampire, a creature from a childhood memory, a young nurse who meets someone who shouldn't be there. A few will make you hold your breath. One or two might make you smile or touch your heart with hope. All of them are designed to be read on a frosty night, with a cozy throw and someone's warm hand to hold, because you don't want to be alone when you read them.

Enjoy every chilling, romantic moment
