Must-read gothic horror

Discover the utterly addictive Southern gothic horror saga by Michael McDowell that swept across Europe, with over two million copies sold. A six-volume series originally published in 1983, The Blackwater Saga has stood the test of time, with beautiful rejacketed paperbacks released as recently as 2024.

Following the Caskey family and their encounters with the supernatural, horror writer Stephen King calls the saga: 'Riveting, terrifying, and just absolutely great'.
