Download or read book The Uninhabited House written by Charlotte Riddell and published by . This book was released on 2022-05-03 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charlotte Riddell's The Uninhabited House (1875) tells the story of River Hall and the secrets that are hidden behind its doors. Within this haunted house, Riddell combines the supernatural with Victorian anxieties over stolen inheritance, crime, greed, and class mobility. This new Broadview Edition includes a detailed biography of Charlotte Riddell and illustrations from the original appearance of the novella in Routledge's Magazine; it also includes Riddell's ghost story "The Open Door" (1882), which serves as a useful companion text for The Uninhabited House. The contextual material in the edition highlights Victorian cultural, historical, and literary influences on Riddell's text, including women's contributions to the ghost story, print culture, and the development of supernatural fiction; the link between ghost stories and the holidays; and the haunted house, ghost hunting, and popular beliefs about ghosts in the Victorian era.

Book excerpt: Charlotte Riddell, a popular, prolific and influential writer of the Victorian era, was born and raised in Co. Antrim in the north of Ireland. She was the daughter of the High Sheriff of Antrim and, in 1855, a few years after his death, she moved to London with her mother, an Englishwoman. Within the year, her mother, too, had died. In 1857, she married a Staffordshire engineer, Joseph Hadley Riddell, and they took up residence in London. Charlotte wrote more than fifty novels and short story collections in her career, and published under her married name, 'Mrs J.H. Riddell'. In spite of her husband's poor business acumen and the consequent financial troubles it brought, they enjoyed a happy marriage until his death in 1881. There were no children from the marriage. After his death, and without any legal obligation, Charlotte determined to pay off his debts, hence ensuring, as income from her books inevitably declined through time, an impecunious existence throughout her later years. Her last years were spent in secluded, genteel poverty, and, shrouded in physical pain, loneliness and depression, she died from cancer in 1906. The Uninhabited House, published in Routledge's Christmas Annual for 1875, is a real page-turner that weaves a supernatural-mystery tale around the Victorian fascinations of commerce, inheritance, legal intrigue and romance. It is told with a wry, gentle wit and its central character-the manipulative Miss Blake-is a masterpiece of comic invention and observation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charlotte Eliza Lawson Cowan was born in Carrickfergus, County Antrim, Ireland, on 30th September 1832, the youngest daughter of James Cowan, a High Sheriff for the County of Antrim, and Ellen Kilshaw from Liverpool, England. In the winter of 1855, four years after her father's death, she and her mother moved to London. Sadly, within the year, her mother also passed. In 1857, she married Joseph Hadley Riddell, a civil engineer. The marriage was happy by all accounts but produced no children. Her first novel, 'The Moors and the Fens', was published in 1858 under the pseudonym of F. G. Trafford, which she used until publishing under the moniker 'Mrs Riddell' from 1864. Charlotte was a prolific, respected and popular author. In her literary career she published over 50 novels and short stories. The most notable is perhaps 'George Geith of Fen Court' (1864), for which she was paid £800. It was later dramatised in 1883 by Wybert Reeve. From 1867, Charlotte ventured into new territory, becoming the co-proprietor and editor of the well-regarded St. James's Magazine, which had begun publishing 1861. She also edited the magazine 'Home in the Sixties', and wrote short stories and tales for the Society for the Promotion of Christian Knowledge and Routledge's Christmas annuals. Charlotte was a prominent writer of ghost stories; 'Fairy Water', 'The Uninhabited House', 'The Haunted River', 'The Disappearance of Mr Jeremiah Redworth' and 'The Nun's Curse', all deal with buildings occupied by supernatural phenomena. Charlotte also wrote several short ghost stories, such as 'The Open Door' and 'Nut Bush Farm', which are regularly anthologised. In 1880 Joseph died. She now withdrew from society and became a recluse. From 1886 this was in Upper Halliford, Middlesex. In 1901 Charlotte became the recipient of the first pension, £60 a year, from the Society of Authors. Charlotte Riddell died from cancer in Ashford, Kent, on 24th September 1906.
