A stunning collection from a mistress of the chilling
Aficionados of supernatural fiction are aware that its golden age
was during the later Victorian and Edwardian eras. There was a huge
public appetite for spine chilling tales and many magazines
published their ideal form-the short story. This created
opportunities for many writers to produce supernatural fiction.
Among the huge number of stories published, some were exceptionally
good and these came from the pens of those who became recognised
masters of the form. Popular authors were often incredibly prolific
and an individual writer's canon of supernatural fiction could be
substantial. Almost every commercially minded writer wrote some
supernatural fiction and many of the finest exponents of the craft
were women. While Mrs. J. H. Riddell had much in common with her
peers, she was highly regarded by some of the genres severest
critics including the 'grand-master' himself, M. R. James.
Charlotte Cowan was born in Ireland in 1832, the daughter of the
High Sheriff of Antrim. She moved to London in 1855 and shortly
thereafter married the civil engineer Joseph Hadley Riddell. As was
often the practice at the time she subsequently wrote under her
formal married name. Besides her career as a writer she was also a
publisher, being part owner of the highly regarded literary
periodical 'The St. Jame's Magazine.' This comprehensive Leonaur
collection of Charlotte Riddell's strange stories comprises three
substantial volumes to captivate both enthusiasts and collectors.
In volume one readers will discover two novels, the well known 'The
Haunted River' and 'The Haunted House at Latchford.' Also included
are three novelettes, 'Nut Bush Farm, ' 'A Terrible Vengeance' and
'Old Mrs. Jones' plus two short stories, 'Hertford O'Donnell's
Warning' and 'Forewarned, Forearmed.'
Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each
title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket; our
hardbacks are cloth bound and feature gold foil lettering on their
spines and fabric head and tail bands.

++++ Poor Fellow Mrs. J. H. Riddell F.V. White, 1902
Slowly, but surely, the conviction had been gaining upon me that,
let the mystery of River Hall be what it would, no ordinary
explanation could account for the phenomena which it had presented
to tenant after tenant; and my own experiences in the house, slight
though they were, tended to satisfy me there was something beyond
malice or interest at work about the place.
