Book Synopsis Ghost Stories: Forgotten Classic Tales by : Leslie S. Klinger
Download or read book Ghost Stories: Forgotten Classic Tales written by Leslie S. Klinger and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2019-04-02 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A masterful collection of ghost stories that have been overlooked by contemporary readers—including tales by celebrated authors such as Charles Dickens, Sir Walter Scott, Mark Twain, and Edith Wharton—presented with insightful annotations by acclaimed horror anthologists Leslie S. Klinger and Lisa Morton. The ghost story has long been a staple of world literature, but many of the genre's greatest tales have been forgotten, overshadowed in many cases by their authors' bestselling work in other genres. In this spine-tingling anthology, little known stories from literary titans like Charles Dickens and Edith Wharton are collected alongside overlooked works from masters of horror fiction like Edgar Allan Poe and M. R. James. Acclaimed anthologists Leslie S. Klinger (The New Annotated Sherlock Holmes) and Lisa Morton (Ghosts: A Haunted History) set these stories in historical context and trace the literary significance of ghosts in fiction over almost two hundred years—from a traditional English ballad first printed in 1724 through the Christmas-themed ghost stories of the Victorian era and up to the science fiction–tinged tales of the early twentieth century. In bringing these masterful tales back from the dead, Ghost Stories will enlighten and frighten both longtime fans and new readers of the genre. Including stories by: Ambrose Bierce, Wilkie Collins, Charles Dickens, Olivia Howard Dunbar, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Henry James, M. R. James, Arthur Machen, Georgia Wood Pangborn, Mrs. J. H. Riddell, Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, Edgar Allan Poe, Sir Walter Scott, Frank Stockton, Mark Twain, and Edith Wharton.

As a child, I was captivated by tales of spooks, haunted houses, wraiths, and specters. Stories of eerie experiences, clanking chains, ghostly apparitions, and unsettling sounds always held me spellbound and breathless. My time in editorial offices revealed that I wasn’t alone in my love for mystery stories. The desire to explore the existence veiled by death is equally potent in both old age and youth. Men, women, and children alike seek thrills and that spine-tingling sensation when reading about visitors from beyond the grave. This volume features some of Edgar Allan Poe’s most famous weird tales. In “The Black Cat,” mystery and the supernatural intertwine seamlessly, and the feline protagonist behaves naturally throughout. The story might even be true—it’s the telling that places it fittingly within this collection. Guy de Maupassant, the clever French writer, contributes two effective pieces, and lesser-known authors also offer memorable stories. Each of the twenty-five tales deserves close reading. Recently, there has been a resurgence of interest in ghost stories. High-class magazines have published supernatural incidents, and renowned writers have turned their attention to this captivating form of literature. Whether or not the reader believe in ghosts, he cannot fail to be interested in this little book. Without venturing to express a positive opinion either way, I will only say with Hamlet: “There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.”
