Following their acclaimed Ghost Stories and Weird Women, award-winning anthologists Leslie S. Klinger and Lisa Morton present a new eclectic anthology of ghosty tales certain to haunt the reader long past the closing page. In Haunted Tales, the reader will enjoy discovering masterpieces like Algernon Blackwood’s terrifying “The Kit-Bag,†Oscar Wilde’s delightful “The Canterville Ghost,†and F. Marion Crawford’s horrific “The Screaming Skull,†as well as lesser-known gems by some of literature’s greatest voices, including Virginia Woolf’s “A Haunted House,â€Â H. G. Wells’s “The Story of the Inexperienced Ghost,â€Â and Rudyard Kipling’s “They.†Haunted Tales also resurrects some wonders that have been woefully neglected, including Dinah Mulock’s “M. Anastasius†(which Charles Dickens called “the best ghost story ever writtenâ€); E. F. Benson’s “The Bus-Conductor†(the source of one of the most iconic lines in horror); and E. and H. Heron’s “The Story of the Spaniards, Hammersmith†(the debut adventure of Flaxman Lowe, fiction’s first psychic detective). Whether the stories are familiar or overlooked, all are sure to surprise and astonish the reader long past the closing of this book’s cover.
