Following 20 August’s eagerly-awaited launch of the BBC’s classic Ghost Story series on BFI DVD, two more volumes – each containing three spine-tingling tales – will be released on 17 September. The films are:
Lost Hearts (1973) The Treasure of Abbot Thomas (1974) and The Ash Tree (1975) – all directed by Lawrence Gordon Clark and all containing newly filmed introductions by him.
The Signalman (Lawrence Gordon Clark, 1976) Stigma (Lawrence Gordon Clark, 1977) and The Ice House (Derek Lister, 1978) – with new introductions to The Signalman and Stigma by Lawrence Gordon Clark.
Five of the films have never been available to watch in any home video format before, while The Signalman was released on BFI DVD in 2002 but has long since been deleted.
