Description
A haunting invitation to the quiet corners of nineteenth-century life. A collector's dream, a doorway into rooms where shadows linger and memory keeps vigil. This is more than a ghost stories collection; it is a carefully curated supernatural fiction anthology that threads mood, atmosphere, and moral consequence into a single, compelling experience. From lamplit corridors to wind-swept moors, the tales illuminate hauntings and revenants with precision and grace, offering both chills and reflection. The book invites casual readers to be startled and delighted, while also serving classic literature fans and reading groups with thoughtful textures for study and discussion in the classroom or library. Historically significant and lovingly restored, the volume captures flavour and texture of Victorian England-nineteenth-century gothic sensibility, chiaroscuro prose, and echoes of masters such as Edgar Allan Poe-without sacrificing readability for modern hands. The result is a work that resonates now as a cultural treasure, preserving a tradition while making it accessible to new generations. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this edition is more than a reprint - it is a collector's item and a repository of colour, scent, and sound from a vanished era. For readers who adore the uncanny, for study circles, and for those seeking a richly atmospheric foray into classic horror, this book offers enduring enchantment and insight.
