Ghost Train (1985)
Stephen Laws


Book Description

Mark Davies has no memory of what happened when he fell from the King’s Cross train. But ever since the accident he has been haunted by terrifying nightmares, and he feels compelled to return again and again to the station.

Yet Mark is not alone. Over the span of decades, many strange and violent incidents have occurred on the King’s Cross line. Unexplained acts of brutality. Random acts of violence. An unseen force that drives people to kill.

There is something evil aboard the train. And to stop it Mark must take one final train ride – right through the gates of Hell!


REVIEWS

‘Laws is the authentic article – a writer whose love of good horror is as profound as his skill with it. He’s one of the true contemporary treasures of the field.’ - Ramsey Campbell 

‘It’s King meets Kurosawa courtesy of Stephen Laws. Get your ticket now for Ghost Train!’ - Fangoria

‘Stand aside Stephen King, James Herbert and Clive Barker and let through a new heir to the horror throne!’ - Starburst Magazine

'Stephen Laws has always had the gift of making his readers believe the unbelievable ... even when they would really rather not. His horrors rise from the page like a corpse rising from a rain-soaked grave and touching you with a cold, muddy hand.' - Graham Masterton
