It looked like a giant snail, but its head was part human, its body and limbs part squid or octopus. An enormous succubus. It stood taller than the man in the pool. A creature soft and slimy, a survivor from our primaeval past.’ 

 

Take a plunge into Echoes of Eerie Encounters, a collection of Ruskin Bond’s most haunting stories; some bone-chilling and others rib-tickling. Is it ghosts you seek? There are phantom encounters waiting to happen—in abandoned houses, lonesome hill roads, forgotten bars and even the shadows of crowds. Or do you crave the company of murderers and scoundrels? They are here too, holding court with poisons and knives, biding their time.  

The darkness beckons, with all the strange things and people that find comfort in it. Journey on… Who knows what you might find…
