Home / Ghost Stories and Tales of Mystery
Four spine-chilling stories from the Irish writer of Gothic tales and mystery novels Sheridan Le Fanu:
The Watcher: Wherever he goes, Barton is being followed – and it's driving him mad.
The Murdered Cousin: A suspicion of murder had fallen upon the uncle of a young countess, but he must be innocent, because the room where the victim was found was sealed – the door had been double locked from the inside!
Schalken the Painter: Rose is in love with young painter Schalken, but her uncle seals a deal with a strange man who never blinks and doesn't breathe ...
The Evil Guest: Having dissipated the family's wealth, Richard Marston is at a low point of his life when a letter from a rich cousin arrives. It might help improve the family's finances to invite the cousin – or it might be courting disaster.
With illustrations by Phiz (Hablot Knight Browne) and additional annotations.
