An exceptional read, and an equally exceptional visual feast! I loved this book and will certainly be adding more of Simon Marsden's works to my endless list of things to read. The narrative compliments to sublime aura of the book that his photography conjures and, sat in the dead of night, it's easy to allow your imagination to run riot.

I'll be returning to this one when I comes time to write some more horror.

Thanks Simon.

The b&w photography is beautifully presented. Lyrically haunting as befits the short summaries of the possible haunting(s) of the homes accompanying the photos.

L'auteur a parcouru la France à la recherche de lieux hantés - surtout des châteaux abandonnés et des cimetières. Le texte est intéressant; Marsden est très sensible à l'esprit des lieux, parfois il suggère des choses que je me suis déjà demandé (la mémoire des pierres dans le cristal et le silicone, est-ce que nous pouvons hériter de la mémoire de nos ancêtres), parfois il se sent observé dans ces lieux insolites. Ce qui me plaît surtout ce sont les photographies, extraordinaires, du noir-blanc sur film intrarouge qui donne une impression étrange de présences à peine cachées. Elles fichent tellement la trouille que mon mari, qui avait acheté ce livre, n'ose pas les regarder!… (mere)

Absolutely fabulous pictures throughout, and lovely to look at otherwise (great coffee table display book!). The stories are just in-depth enough to satisfy, and "lightly" written for entertainment. We all knew France is a fascinating, historical gold mine - who knew it was also creepy? Terrific book for everyone, treasure for collectors!
