The Dead Smile

Sir Hugh takes his secret to the grave with a vicious grin on his lips – a devious grin that is somehow contagious. ¶ A master of the short horror story, F. Marion Crawford's contributions to the genre of supernatural fiction are significant. His collection of short stories, Wandering Ghosts, includes tales of vampires, ghouls, the undead, and more. "The Dead Smile" was first published in this collection in 1911.
