Extremely M. R. James things going on in Glasgow Cathedral crypt yesterday #glasgow #ghosts #mrjames
While we often associate the works of MR James with the Yuletide season, one of his most celebrated tales takes place in the spring at Easter, a story of an ill fated hunt for the lost crowns of Anglia - A Warning to the Curious!

Happy Abney Day, you lot. ❤️❤️🩹 #LostHearts #AbneyDay #Nunkie #MRJames #ILostMyHeartInAswarbyHall
It has indeed been quite a week. I've been blown away by the interest and positive comments about our MRJ manuscripts project. It's so hard when working on a new project to know if anyone else shares your enthusiasm! Thanks for the reassurance everyone!
#mrjames #ghoststories
And we've just arranged a nice extra that you can pick up at the same time as the book, but more of that soon...
Anyway, as we head into the weekend, we just wanted to thank you all for your enthusiastic comments and support.
Have a great weekend and no diggin'!
#mrjames #ghoststories
It's also the week that we finalised the text and sent it for layout. The first cut will be done early next week, after which we can confirm page length and printing costs, then get the Kickstarter up and running.

The Haunted Archive: The Annotated Ghost Story Manuscripts of M.R. James
Well, it's been quite a week!
After we announced 'The Haunted Archive: The Annotated Ghost Story Manuscripts of M.R. James' earlier this week, we've been getting lots of interest. So much so that our email briefly fell over...
#mrjames #ghoststories
Me and me ol' mucker Paul M. Chapman have a new project to publish beautiful facsimile manuscript editions of M.R. James' ghost stories in limited run hardbacks.
So if that's your thing, follow @crumpledlinenpress.com and subscribe at www.crumpledlinenpress.com for updates.

Whistle and I’ll Come to You: No jump-scares, just patient, creeping dread. It’s gothic, it’s British & it’s one of those tales that proves folk horror isn’t about spectacle, but atmosphere.

The website homepage. There's a lino cut image of main street, cobbled road and timbered cottages. Text to the left reads: Willerby is an ancient village in the midlands of England. It's very old - there have been people here for thousands of years. There's an old church with even older barrows around it. The graveyard has five-hundred year old graves carved with the surnames of people who still live here. There's a pub on the river and a village green with a rusting bandstand. It's usually quiet - but strange things happen here. The supernatural is as normal to us as the weather. There are many ghosts, we aren't firmly tethered in time and we're visited by folk from very far out places. We have many stories and we'd like you to read and listen to them.
Welcome to Willerby.
A village in which the uncanny is about as remarkable as the weather.
More than 50 free strange stories on village website with original photos, music and art.

Many thanks to @subexotic.bsky.social for this brilliant hauntological album by Foster Neville. This release also echoes M.R. James.
A treat for the haunted generation.
