Scary Stories: A Supernatural Yearbook

Scary Stories: A Supernatural Yearbook is a 1991 collection of supernatural and paranormal material by Jenny Randles and Peter Hough. The title places it within the tradition of the yearbook: an accessible record of reported uncanny experiences and subjects associated with the supernatural, rather than a conventional novel or fictional ghost-story anthology.

Randles and Hough treat the material as accounts and claims, preserving the distinction between what has been reported and what can be established. The book belongs to the early 1990s wave of British popular non-fiction about paranormal subjects, presenting its theme in a compact, paperback reference style. It is also an example of the authors’ collaboration before their later books on afterlife questions, unexplained phenomena and UFOs.
