  • The Reverend David James discovers that a coven of witches have been using his church for worshipping Satan and calling up the dead.  Meanwhile, alone in his mansion, Harry Royce is employing electronic devices to reach the outer limits of the universe.  But when the invasion began it was not known whether the invaders were aliens from a contaminated star, or lost souls erupting out of Limbo.  Two things are clear:  It cannot be stopped and once it ends, there will be no one sane left on earth.

  • The sequel to Gad's Hall. No one at Gad's Hall could admit what they knew about the room in the attic. The locked room that held the Thorley family's most shameful secret. The terrifying room that had once been the living tomb of a beautiful young woman possessed by the darkest evil. Years had passed but the relentless diabolic force abided - waiting until it could once again possess an innocent and inflict its horror upon the living. It was a force countless centuries old. It was simply a matter of time before it would strike again. And when the Spender family moved into Gad's Hall, that time had come...

But when Jill and others sense something wrong emanating from the attic it takes a switch backwards to 1841 to explain fully how a happy, ordinary family is infiltrated by positive evil. Evil so well-disguised that it is not fully understood until the dreadful climax...
