This Christmas, the world turns on its head.  What happens when the light gives way to the dark? When mirth turns to murder? When the howls are not from joy?  Dead Funny is the first ever collection of horror stories written exclusively by some of Britain’s best comedians. Only now, you’re not laughing. Ho, ho ,ho….
 
Award-winning comedian Robin Ince (The Infinite Monkey Cage) teamed up with award-winning horror editor Johnny Mains (The Best British Horror 2014) to find out whether comedy and terror do, as is believed, make the most comfortable bedfellows. The stellar line up of contributors includes:
