I found myself standing in the heart of a raging planet, where the roar resembled the thunderous echoes of countless cannons, punctuated by peculiar crashes. The jarring peals of a disconnected bell in the dead of night; a heavy footfall in the eerie silence of an abandoned manor; the eerie whisper of a deathly voice in the ear: these uncanny sounds continue to be the most chilling heralds of danger and terror in supernatural fiction. Here, we present fourteen tales that resonate with the distinctively fearful tone struck by peculiar experiences triggered through the aural sense. Organized into four sections exploring noises from invisible presences, ghostly voices, possessed technology, and the power of extreme levels of sound or silence, this collection pulsates with pioneering pieces by renowned authors such as B. M. Croker, Algernon Blackwood, Edith Wharton, and M. P. Shiel, alongside haunting obscurities from the British Library collections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 190 x 130 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780712354172\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44094702780666,"sku":"9780712354172","price":7.84,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1663962862127_book.jpg?v=1664110707","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/spectral-sounds-unquiet-tales-of-acoustic-weird-9780712354172","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
