Ancient Images by Ramsey Campbell BLOG TOUR @ramseycampbell1 @RandomTTours #Giveaway #Prize @flametreepress #Competition

 


Tower of Fear is a lost horror film starring Karloff and Lugosi. 

A film historian who locates a copy dies while fleeing something that terrified him. 

His friend Sandy Allan vows to prove he found the film. 

She learns how haunted the production was and the survivors of it still are. 

It contains a secret about Redfield, a titled family that owns a favourite British food, Staff o’ Life. 

The Redfield land has uncanny guardians, and one follows Sandy home. 

To maintain its fertility Redfield demands a sacrifice, and a band of new age travellers is about to set up camp there…

One copy of Ancient Images by Ramsey Campbell




Ramsey Campbell (born 4 January 1946 in Liverpool) is an English horror fiction writer, editor and critic who has been writing for well over fifty years. Two of his novels have been filmed, both for non-English-speaking markets.

Since he first came to prominence in the mid-1960s, critics have cited Campbell as one of the leading writers in his field: T. E. D. Klein has written that "Campbell reigns supreme in the field today", and Robert Hadji has described him as "perhaps the finest living exponent of the British weird fiction tradition", while S. T. Joshi stated, "future generations will regard him as the leading horror writer of our generation, every bit the equal of Lovecraft or Blackwood."

“He is unsurpassed in the subtle manipulation of mood... You forget you’re just reading a story” (Publishers Weekly)
