The protagonist of the tale is Lady Ursula, a woman compelled to stay in a haunted house for five nights in order to inherit her uncle's wealth. The spirit of a woman who passed away years ago is supposed to haunt and curse the house. Mr. Grey, a barrister and friend of Lady Ursula's, is skeptical about the otherworldly allegations. Lady Ursula starts to have weird and scary experiences as the evenings go by, which makes her doubt her sanity. Mr. Grey attempts to explain the happenings, but he soon comes to the conclusion that there might be a darker motive at work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In its first edition Dictionary of Literary Pseudonyms established itself as a comprehensive dictionary of pseudonyms used by literary writers in English from the 16th century to the present day. This new Second Edition increases coverage by 35%! There are two sequences: Part I - which now includes more than 17,000 entries- is an alphabetical list of pseudonyms followed by the writer's real name. Part II is an alphabetical list of writers cited in Part I-more than 10,000 writers included-providing brief biographical details followed by pseudonyms used by the wrter and titles published under those pseudonyms. Dictionary or Literary Pseudonyms has now become a standard reference work on the subject for teachers, student, and public, high school, and college/universal librarians. The Second Edition will, we believe, consolidate that reputation.

Download or read book Decadent and Occult Works by Arthur Machen written by Dennis Denisoff and published by MHRA. This book was released on 2018-07-11 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arthur Machen has finally been recognized as a key contributor to the glittering age of British Decadence. Best known for the novella The Great God Pan and for his formative influence on weird fiction, in fact much of Machen’s writing profoundly challenges literary and cultural convention. From the demonic horror of “The Recluse of Bayswater” to the plush occultism of The Hill of Dreams and the prose poems of Ornaments in Jade, this selection of works from throughout Machen’s career brings to life his unique symbolist aesthetics and spiritual philosophy. This is the first edition of Machen’s work to foreground his Decadent and occult writing. It includes a scholarly introduction, extensive annotations, and revealing contextual materials. Engaging with the gems of Machen’s oeuvre, the collection invites readers to open their minds to a reality beyond the veil, the reality – in Machen’s view – that matters most.
