Book Summary
Step into the shadowy corners of Ruskin Bond's imagination with The Shadow On The Wall, a gripping collection of twenty-one suspenseful tales that blend classic chills with fresh, unpublished nightmares. This atmospheric anthology invites adult readers and fans of quiet dread to savor Bond's restrained horror and atmospheric storytelling, where danger lurks in ordinary places and the dark is never far away.
Written with Bond's signature lean prose, the stories unfold with craftsmanship and careful pacing. The collection pairs enduring classics—A Face in the Dark and Susanna's Seven Husbands—with new tales that have never appeared before, creating a varied journey through moonlit hills, deserted mansions, and restless spirits. The reading experience is rich yet accessible: the tales are compact enough for a late-night dip, yet resonant enough to haunt your thoughts long after the lights go out. Expect encounters with ghosts who speak in whispers, a doppelgänger that blurs the line between self and other, and a chorus of hill-station spirits, jinns, and legends like the Bhoot-aunty of Mussoorie.
After finishing The Shadow On The Wall, readers will carry a lingering hush of awe and a sharper appreciation for the craft of horror fiction—stories that stay with you, inviting you to listen for whispers in the dark and reminding you that even ordinary spaces can conceal the extraordinary. This collection offers a memorable, confidence-building journey into the mysterious and the supernatural.
