Description
They Walk Again is a wonderfully atmospheric ghost story collection from the early 20th century—one of those books that reminds me why I fall in love with older editions. This 1942 reissue preserves the charm of the original 1931 anthology with its haunting selection of supernatural tales chosen by Colin de la Mare.
Even with some wear, the survival of the dust jacket makes this copy special. After all these decades, it still has that moody, vintage character readers adore, and the Brodart covering now gives it the care it deserves. Inside, the pages have held up beautifully, offering that soft, warm aging that collectors and readers appreciate.
If you love classic ghost stories, vintage books with personality, or editions that look like they’ve lived a life of their own, this is the kind of volume that belongs on your shelf. It’s a perfect spooky-season read—or a thoughtful gift for someone who enjoys stories with a little mystery and history woven in.
