3. Ash
David Ash – detective of the paranormal – is sent to the mysterious Comraich Castle, secluded deep in the Scottish countryside, to investigate a strange, high-profile case: a man has been found crucified – in a room that was locked. The reports suggest that the cliff-top castle is being haunted . . .
Who – or what – is the reclusive hooded figure that Ash has seen from the window walking across the courtyard in the dead of night?
What are the strange, animal-like sounds that come from the surrounding woods?
And why are the castle’s inhabitants so reluctant to talk about what they have seen?

The Secret of Crickley Hall (2006)
The Legend of Crickley Hall is a new take on the classic ghost story...in much the same way as his bestseller Once was a new take on the classic fairy tale. James Herbert is an author who has produced some of the most powerful horror fiction of the past generation. In recent years his fiction has become a skilful blend of horror and thriller fiction - what we like to call Chiller fiction. He explores the darker, more obtuse territories of evil, evoking a sense of brooding menace and rising tension. He masterfully and relentlessly draws the reader through to a story's ultimate revelation - one that will stay to chill the mind long after the book has been laid aside.
