Beskrivning
World-renowned cartoonist Seth returns with three new ghost stories for 2026.Reading a ghost story on Christmas Eve was once as much a part of traditional Christmas celebrations as turkey, eggnog, and Santa Claus. World-famous cartoonist Seth selects and beautifully illustrates each book for this beloved series in his own inimitable way, bringing back these classic Christmas ghost stories for readers across North America.After his dear friend’s sudden death, a grieving man visits the countryside on holiday in hopes of taking his mind off the loss. During his stay with the Baldwin family, however, the man finds himself haunted by not only his friend’s memory, but another presence that’s been disturbed in the Baldwin home.

Praise for Seth’s Christmas Ghost Stories“[This] series of Christmas ghost stories, miniature books chosen and illustrated by the cartoonist Seth . . . [offers] chills—and charm.”—John Williams, New York Times Book Review"Did you know there is an old tradition of telling ghost stories on Christmas Eve? For the past several years Canadian publisher Biblioasis has revived the tradition, one thin, tiny book at a time (illustrated by minimalistic, idiosyncratic cartoonist Seth). They’ve revived ghosts by Edith Wharton, Charles Dickens and others . . . What is, after all, 'A Christmas Carol' but a ghost story, handed down, every holiday?"—Christopher Borrelli, Chicago Tribune“I just bought my set of these and they . . . are . . . PERFECT. I hope they do these every year.”—Patton Oswalt“Each of these tiny books . . . is cleverly illustrated by the cartoonist known as Seth. Even smaller than a Christmas card, they make fun literary stocking stuffers.”—Ron Charles, Washington Post"Tales of dread that will raise goosebumps on your arms faster than the coldest winter wind . . . These stocking-sized one-sit reads really are a great way to spend those quiet moments when you can find them among the holiday craziness."—Blu Gilliand, Cemetery Dance
