    Your Own Dark Shadow: A Selection of Lost Irish Horror Stories (Tramp Press) is the latest in the press’s popular and influential Recovered Voices series. Monsters, killers and unquiet spirits stalk these stories, drawn from the places where folklore, the Gothic and modern fiction intertwine. Join writer, and the book’s editor, Jack Fennell to celebrate the launch of this page-turning collection featuring stories by Katharine Tynan, William Carleton, and Mildred Darby.
