Autorenporträt
Craig Lamont is a researcher and editor, and an expert on Dorothy K. Haynes' works and archive. He has spearheaded a revival of Haynes' writing, beginning in 2023 with a new edition of the novel Haste Ye Back published by the Association of Scottish Literature. Johnny Mains is an author and award-winning editor renowned for recovering lost stories from the archives. Among the many volumes he has edited are two collections of lost women's ghost stories for Black Shuck Books (A Suggestion of Ghosts and An Obscurity of Ghosts), the collection Bound in Blood for Titan, and three collections of strange fiction for the British Library: Celtic Weird, Scotland the Strange and Halloweird. Dorothy K. Haynes (1918-1987) was a Scottish novelist, journalist and short story writer who came to specialize in the ghostly and weird tale. Her impressive collection Thou Shalt Not Suffer a Witch was published in 1949, and she became a regular contributor to the legendary Fontana and Pan horror anthologies in the 1970s.
