Editing Ramsey Campbell (section)

===Books edited===

Campbell has edited a number of [[anthologies]], including ''[[New Tales of the Cthulhu Mythos]]'' (1980); ''New Terrors'' and ''New Terrors II'', a groundbreaking two-volume anthology series; and (with [[Stephen Jones (author)|Stephen Jones]]) the first five volumes of the annual ''Best New Horror'' series (1990–1994). His 1992 anthology ''[[Uncanny Banquet]]'' was notable for including the first ever reprint of the obscure 1914 horror novel ''The Hole of the Pit'' by [[Adrian Ross]]. ''[[The Gruesome Book]]'' was a paperback anthology of horror tales for children. Campbell is extremely well-read in the horror field, and some of his own literary influences are demonstrated by his selections for the 1988 anthology ''Fine Frights: Stories That Scared Me''. In 2002 he edited a collection of fiction in the tradition of M. R. James, entitled ''Meddling with Ghosts''. His 2003 anthology ''Gathering the Bones'' (co-edited with Dennis Etchison and Jack Dann) draws together tales from the UK, US, and Australia. ''The Folio Book of Horror Stories'' (2018), the first collection Campbell had edited in 15 years, draws together classic tales from the last 200 years.
