Unexplained Laughter is a novel by Alice Thomas Ellis, originally published in 1985 and then by Penguin Books in 1986. The story follows Lydia, who, after a love disappointment, retreats to the Welsh countryside. There, she accidentally invites Betty as her companion and encounters a series of peculiar characters, including Hywel, his wife Elizabeth, the aspiring priest Beuno, and the lecherous Doctor Wyn. Meanwhile, Hywel's strange sister Angharad observes everything, and Lydia becomes increasingly disturbed by the inexplicable laughter that comes from the hills. A fast, wicked and devastating black comedy.
