Fear Walks The Night

Cover
Frederick Cowles

Frederick Cowles (1882–1948) turned out a large body of Jamesian ghost fiction between the wars. His three collections, Fear Walks the Night (1933), The Night Wind Howls (1938), and The Horror of Abbot’s Grange (1936), are now among the scarcest books in the field.

About

Frederick Cowles (1882–1948) poured out scores of Jamesian tales for the popular press in the 1930s—haunted villages, psychic investigators, and continental horrors—before they were gathered into three books now legendary among collectors. This volume collects the complete published supernatural fiction from Fear Walks the Night (1933), The Night Wind Howls (1938), and The Horror of Abbot’s Grange (1936): work once dismissed as hackwork and now among the scarcest in the post-James tradition.
