Gibbet Hill

As if by the irony of fate, there, beside me, was a grim memorial of man's wickedness and lust for blood — a tombstone by the roadside...

A man escaping the confines of London walks in Gibbet Hill in Surrey, drinking in the lush scenery, taking a breath from his busy life, when from this idyllic landscape emerges something out of place: a tombstone, and beside it three children, striking in their youth, yet with a presence that feels almost as old as the hills themselves.

The lost tale of “Gibbet Hill” by Bram Stoker, the world-famous author of Dracula, published for the first time in 130 years.
