Madam Crowl s Ghost (Wordsworth Mystery & Supernatural) (Tales of Mystery & the Supernatural)
£0.01
Le Fanu = God. It s that simple. - Above James, above Onions, above Aickman, above anyone, Le Fany is the master. The escalation of his tales to the point of crescendo marks the work of a true genious who never ruined his tales by explaining what was going on in them. This collection of tales, handpicked by fellow ghost story maestro M.R. James, features some of his finest stories. Particularly chilling was Sir Dominick s Bargain , which has a brilliant and chilling twist that sets the hairs on my back up straight just by thinking of it. Almost 150 years after he s died, no one has yet done the ghost story genre better than J. Sheridan Le Fany. Essential reading.
