————————
I fell in Love with The Moons whom I had heard and seen at my door when I was a young boy in Malaysia. I have brought together, in this work, many of the short stories and texts that have made me what I am and what I will be, and it gives an insight into my Spheres for those who wish to read what formed me. I have never tired of these works, which still move me profoundly, and I never will.
–– David Tibet
A third volume of supernatural tales and obscure texts that continues the series of chilling compilations edited by artist, writer, and musician David Tibet that began with The Moons At Your Door and There Is a Graveyard that Dwells In Man.
Surveying a more occluded terrain of ghostly weirdness than its predecessors, this collection includes many forgotten, neglected, or little-known voices of strange fiction that will chill and delight even the most seasoned of supernatural aficionados.
With tales by Dolf Wyllarde, Wirt Gerrare, HTW Bousfield, WF Harvey, M Hayling, Theodore Frederick Poulson, HR Wakefield, Walter de la Mare, Chris Massie, CB Pulman, JF Clements-Scott, Ernest Martin, Bessie Kyffin-Taylor, Robert Gathorne-Hardy, Arthur L. Salmon and Leslie Garth.
Dark Indeed, Sorrel also includes the first new story, and a selection of new poems, written by June-Alison Gibbons, author of The Pepsi Cola Addict, since the 1990s, and unpublished poems by her twin sister Jennifer Gibbons, alongside substantial bibliographical notes by James Machin and Tim Jarvis.

About the author
As founder of the Ultimate Hallucinatory SuperGroup Current 93, David Tibet’s work as an artist and songwriter is widely known. His song cycles present a rich vein of ethereal imagery, arcane reference and the supernatural, creating their own sound-worlds of heart-felt and mysterious poignancy. The Moons At Your Door presents both a skeleton key to these domains and a gateway to the world of supernatural fiction.
