First published in 1895, The Dead Valley is one of Ralph Adams Cram's finest supernatural tales and a forgotten classic of atmospheric horror.

When a lone traveller ventures into an isolated mountain valley, he discovers a place where an oppressive silence hangs over the landscape and an ancient evil seems woven into the very air. As he journeys deeper into the valley, he begins to realise that some places are abandoned for a reason... and that not every path leads safely home.

Praised by H. P. Lovecraft for its haunting atmosphere and subtle terror, The Dead Valley remains a superb example of classic weird fiction, where mounting dread and eerie suggestion prove far more terrifying than anything plainly seen.

This timeless classic is narrated by horror author Jonathan Dunne.
