Tales of Terror Series

by
(1 review)

Chris Priestley’s Tales of Terror are truly scary children’s horror books suitable for readers 9+.

This award-winning, middle-grade trilogy is a collection of unsettling ghost stories, with a gothic feel inspired by Edgar Allen Poe and M.R. James, and creepy illustrations by David Roberts. 

Uncle Montague lives alone in a big house and delights in telling his nephew the most frightening stories he knows. But the terror does not end with the stories, as it turns out that the Tales of Terror are not works of imagination, but dreadful memories from Uncle Montague’s old life…

The books are collections of standalone short stories, so you can read them in any order, but we recommend starting with book one - Uncle Montague’s Tales of Terror.
