Publisher's Synopsis

Richard Ayoade edits and introduces this defining work of the great midcentury visionary of stage and screen -- rediscovered and republished by Faber & Faber.

This volume of Harauld Hughes's last four screenplays includes a preface and afterword by the author.

THE TERRIBLE WITCH
A feisty undergraduate uncovers fresh witchy business in Ipswich.

THE AWFUL WOMAN FROM SPACE
Two top feminist scientists find their sense of sisterhood challenged by the arrival of an intergalactic uber-femme.

THE DEADLY GUST
This ill wind blows no one any good in one of Hughes's most elliptical works for the screen.

THE GLOWING WRONG
When two research scientists are asked to move their lab facility into a cursed church, they awake an ancient evil at the heart of the British government.
