This collection contains twenty of the very best supernatural tales
from the golden age of the ghost story. It includes classics by
some of the most esteemed writers of the Victorian and Edwardian
eras, among them Sheridan Le Fanu, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Ambrose
Bierce, Washington Irving and M.R. James. Also included are
neglected masterpieces of terror by the likes of William Hope
Hodgson, Mrs B.M. Croker, Louisa Baldwin and Amyas Northcote. The
stories themselves range from the quaintly wistful to the genuinely
disturbing and, hopefully, will delight and surprise aficionados of
the ghost story and newcomers alike. Each tale comes complete with
a brief biography of the author. A companion volume to 'Classic
Ghost Stories' and 'Classic Horror Stories'.
