#1 – The Carnacki Casebook
Volume 1 of The Carnacki Casebook is a collection featuring three cases previously available individually: The Haunting of Halton Grange, The Barton Wood Mystery, and The Secret in the Library.
THE HAUNTING OF HALTON GRANGE:
The staff of Halton Grange, a property in Dorset just south of the tranquil village of Corscombe, discover a mysterious hallway in the manor that had not been known of before. Dark and distorted, they daren’t enter. Lord Halton and Carlisle, the butler, brace themselves and venture inside. They find a part of the manor they’d thought had been torn down decades previously, and had contained the rooms of Lord Halton’s Great-uncle Colin: A skeleton in the Halton family closet with an evil reputation, including accusations of murder and dark magic. Making their way to the ancient bed chamber, they encounter a creature that had once been Lord Halton’s Great-uncle, and they barely escape with their lives. Realizing their dire need, Lord Halton contacts occult detective Thomas Carnacki, who enters the dark world himself and uncovers an even greater evil haunting Halton Grange. Part I of The Black Obelisk, a continuing series.
THE BARTON WOOD MYSTERY:
After purchasing the Barton Wood estate in Norfolk, Douglas Morgan couldn’t wait to move in with his young family: The old manor was exactly what he’d been looking for, and the surrounding country was beautiful. But not long after taking possession, he realized something was terribly wrong at the estate: A menacing presence in the forest, something at the window of his daughter’s bedroom, and a strange intruder in the basement all led him to question his acquisition. At his wit’s end, and fearing for the safety of his family, he contacts Thomas Carnacki, the famous occult detective, for help. Carnacki finds a force at work on the estate, but is it of the Outside, or something more commonplace? And, what does it want of the Morgan family? Carnacki must investigate and solve The Mystery of Barton Wood, or the Morgans will never have peace again!
THE SECRET IN THE LIBRARY:
Francis Shaw had been working at the prestigious Morden Library for only a short time, when a series of strange events caught his attention: Rare books and manuscripts, put away for the evening, found lying open again the very next morning. This seemed innocuous enough, and other library staff members passed it off as simply carelessness or the work of a prankster. But as it continued, a disturbing pattern began to emerge, one indicative of an injustice having occurred at some point in the library’s past. Spending a night in the library expecting to catch the person responsible in the act, Shaw instead encounters a force outside his experience and enlists occult detective Thomas Carnacki to determine the nature of the phenomenon. Carnacki utilizes all his techniques, and consults famed medium Lady Anne Bennett to uncover The Secret in the Library!
#2 – The Carnacki Casebook
Volume 2 of The Carnacki Casebook is a collection featuring three cases: A Yuletide Horror, The Curse of the Black Obelisk (The Black Obelisk, Part II), and The Adventure of the North York Moors.
A YULETIDE HORROR (Case No. 04)
It’s just a week before Christmas, and something is stirring in the Robinson’s house! Strange noises at all times of the day and night, objects moving on their own, and disappearing Christmas treats threaten to not only ruin the family’s holiday but drive them from their home.
THE CURSE OF THE BLACK OBELISK – THE BLACK OBELISK, PART II (Case No. 05)
While the case at Halton Grange had been brought to a successful conclusion, troubling questions remained. From where had the obelisk fragment come? What was the nature of its power? And, was a greater conspiracy at work? Turning his attention to these questions, Carnacki finds himself haunted by a recurring dream and pursued by a strange presence: a sinister agency intent upon recovering the fragment. Undaunted, he continues his investigation, and is led to an ancient ruin in the Scottish Highlands, a place of dark legend avoided by man and beast alike.
THE ADVENTURE OF THE NORTH YORK MOORS (Case No. 06)
Carnacki had been looking forward to the hunting trip with his friends to the North York Moors. It was just the break they needed from the hustle and bustle of London. And, initially, they weren’t disappointed: The weather had been beautiful and the game plentiful. But one night, having become lost, the party takes refuge in an abandoned mansion perched upon a desolate hilltop. In one of the rooms they find a strange message—or perhaps an incantation—for after reading it they’re confronted by a terrifying phantasm capable of warping reality itself!
