Ghastly Beyond Belief gathers the sharpest, strangest quotations from the golden age of British horror and science-fiction pulps, curated by genre experts Kim Newman and Neil Gaiman. This 1985 Arrow paperback first edition is a nostalgic time-capsule for fans of vintage fantasy, paranormal and weird fiction.

Expect page-turning snippets from forgotten penny dreadfuls, early space operas and supernatural shockers, all chosen with Newman’s encyclopaedic eye and Gaiman’s dark wit. The result is a compact reference that doubles as an addictive bedside read for adults and YA readers who like their chills served with literary trivia.

The book shows gentle shelf life: light edge-wear to the cover, minor scuffing on the closed page edges, and occasional printer’s marks that never obscure text or enjoyment. Inside, pages remain crisp, unmarked and tightly bound—ready for immediate browsing or display among collectible paperbacks.

Collectors seeking a first edition of this cult anthology will appreciate its clean condition and unfaded spine, while newcomers to Newman and Gaiman’s non-fiction work get an affordable introduction to their shared love of the macabre and out-of-print.
