Chris Priestley

Mister Creecher is Chris Priestley’s Frankenstein novel. Exploring the relationship this classic monster has with a young boy called Billy, it is a wonderful read with a great twist in the tale. Chris’ novels, such as Uncle Montague’s Tales of Terror, are brilliantly original additions to a long tradition of horror stories by the likes of Edgar Allan Poe and Henry James. Come and talk spine-chillers, gothic and horror with an inventive master of the genre. Keep your ticket as it entitles you to half price entry to The Edinburgh Dungeon; they provided the ghoulish props for this event. Ages 11–14. Part of Edinburgh International Book Festival
