THROUGH THE BOWELS OF THE EARTH, A NIGHTMARE EVIL CREPT TO ENGULF HOBB'S FARM ...

The lethal, body-pulping pile-up on the winding Welsh mountain road was sickening enough. But the spillage of chemicals from the wrecked lorry, leaking through the hidden channels of the earth to contaminate the pond at Hobb's Farm, miles away, produced an unimaginably more horrific effect. As the farm animals drank the tainted water, something strange and sinister began to happen. Soon, previously docile beasts were moving in on their increasingly panic-stricken human 'masters'. Moving in – for the kill ...

The Farm (1984), written by Laurence James (1942-2000) under the pseudonym 'Richard Haigh', is one of the most terrifying novels of Nature gone berserk ever written. One of the scarcest horror titles from the Paperbacks from Hell era, it returns to print at last with a new introduction by Will Errickson and the original cover art by Les Edwards.
