Synopsis:

Werewolves, vampires and ghosts haunt the living in this much sought-after BBC horror anthology series devised by talented TV dramatist Robert Muller. Referencing a rich vein of literary gothic stories, from Shelly's Frankenstein to Le Fanu's Carmilla, the series presents seven unique tales (including the admired two-parter Countess Ilona and The Werewolf Reunion) across eight unsettling instalments. Each episode opens in the Club of the Damned, where prospective entrants are required to tell a story that will chill the blood of the assembled members. But much is at stake for the storyteller, as failure to induce terror in all who attend carries the price of certain death. A timeless example of British Gothic horror at its very best Supernatural boasts a superb cast of acting talent, including Billie Whitelaw (Frenzy, The Omen), Jeremy Brett (The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes), Robert Hardy (Psychomania, Middlemarch), Gordon Jackson (The Professionals), Denholm Elliott (The Signalman, Bad Timing), Ian Hendry (Repulsion, Get Carter), Jeremy Clyde (Schalcken the Painter) and is directed by such legendary filmmakers as Peter Sasdy (Countess Dracula, The Stone Tape).
Disc One: Ghosts of Venice, Countess Ilona, The Werewolf Reunion, Mr. Nightingale
Disc Two: Lady Sybil, Viktoria, Night of the Marionettes, Dorabella.
