Don't Go to Sleep in the Dark by Celia Fremlin

An aunt feels foreboding about her niece's new fiance - but the darkness comes from within... A haunted babysitter experiences a little girl's terror of The Hen With The Great Big Eyes... One teenage girl's evening home alone is ruined by a mysterious unexpected visitor... A little boy's obsession with angels leads to a dramatic metamorphosis...

Celia Fremlin's classic Gothic story collection is a masterpiece of psychological horror, mining the darkest elements of marriage, childhood, and ageing; probing paranoia, grief and toxic relationships; inviting the ghosts of the past into our present; and exploring the nightmarish secret impulses and supernatural forces lurking beneath suburban Britain.
