4.0

Four of Blackwood's best horror stories. 

While The Listner's ending is not as effective in this day and age, the story still builds an admirable sense of foreboding. 

The Willows and The Wendigo both touch beautifully on our relationship with nature and the wild places where humans are not always a welcome element. 

The Empty House is a story said to be based on Blackwood's own experiences with the paranornal and is a good study in the power of fear.
