Description

What if the evidence of a crime could haunt you long after death-and make sure you never forget?

The Screaming Skull plunges readers into a windswept New England night where each eerie shriek from a skull foretells madness-or confession. This modern translation preserves Crawford's richly Gothic language while sharpening the pacing for today's audience.

What You'll Discover in This Modern Translation:
