Heartstoppingly chilling Daily Express Read the truly terrifying classic English ghost story behind the play. Arthur Kipps a junior solicitor is summoned to attend the funeral of Mrs Alice Drablow the sole inhabitant of Eel Marsh House. The house stands at the end of a causeway wreathed in fog and mystery but it is not until he glimpses a wasted young woman dressed all in black at the funeral that a creeping sense of unease begins to take hold a feeling deepened by the reluctance of the locals to talk of the woman in black - and her terrible purpose. No one chills the heart like Susan Hill Daily Telegraph **If you love The Woman in Black try The Various Haunts of Men the first book in Susan Hills Simon Serrailler series**
