Publisher Description
A selection of thirteen chilling ghost stories from the greatest Victorian writers.
The ghost story was part of the Victorians’ fascination with the supernatural and the desire to establish a link with the past. In an age when life could be threatened by incidental dangers and death was ever present, it could be read, in the words of Peter Ackroyd, as a ‘bridge of light between the living and the dead… a continuity albeit of a spectral kind’.
The thirteen supernatural stories chosen for this special edition are amongst the best ever written, and include classics from Charles Dickens, Sheridan Le Fanu, Arthur Conan Doyle, Robert Louis Stevenson, Wilkie Collins, Rudyard Kipling, Henry James, M. R. James, Arthur Machen and Edith Wharton.
