Sinister House (Classic Reprint) by Leland Hall Pdf

Excerpt from Sinister House WE hit upon the same thought at precisely the same instant, my wife and I, as we started home from Julia's. Coming out from the gloomy driveway and turning to the right along the main road, the night a bit wild with wind and the moonlight hitting the earth hard through rifts in the racing cloud, my wife spoke the words with me: How gay she was after all!

Haunted Houses by Charles G. Harper Pdf

Excerpt from Haunted Houses: Tales of the Supernatural; With Some Account of Hereditary Curses and Family Legends But, nevertheless, the era of the haunted house has long been on the wane. There is too much intellectual priggishness prevalent nowadays for the fine old crusted tales Of the Moated Grange and its Spectral inhabitants to attract more than an amused tolerance, as things only fitting for children. To an age which knows so much more than was known fifty years ago, and therefore presumes that it has arrived at a complete knowledge of all there is to know in heaven and earth, talk of Spirits is - what a more subject was, in the words of St. Paul, to the Greeks foolishness.

The Haunted and the Haunters, Or the House and the Brain (Classic Reprint) by Edward Bulwer Lytton Pdf

Excerpt from The Haunted and the Haunters, or the House and the Brain The story which follows has al ways seemed to me absolutely unique. At the present day the occult is becoming almost the fashion in fiction, and many hundreds of stories have appeared in which a prominent part is played by hypno tism, by magic of various sorts and even by direct apparitions. It has come in my way to read very many of such things, yet I can think of none so gruesome - none so thor oughly calculated to make your flesh creep, as the fat boy re marked in Pickwick - as this which was written more than half a cen tury ago, when the spirit of the times was so utterly different. I am surprised to hear that it has not hitherto been published in full in America. The shortened form which is more commonly seen appears to have been a later recension by theauthor, who thought that the latter part of his tale bore too close a re semblance to the plot which he later worked up more fully in A Strange Way. Here, however, we have it in its original and unabridged form, and I think that all readers will agree that the part which was later omitted adds greatly to the interest of the story.

A House of Ghosts by W. C. Ryan Pdf

Finalist for the Irish Book Award for Crime Fiction Book of the Year, a Classic Cozy Big-House Mystery Haunted by the Specters of World War One—For Readers of Agatha Christie and Simone St. James Winter 1917. As the First World War enters its most brutal phase, back home in England, everyone is seeking answers to the darkness that has seeped into their lives. At Blackwater Abbey, on an island off the Devon coast, armaments manufacturer Lord Highmount has arranged a spiritualist gathering to contact his two sons, both of whom died at the front. Among the guests, two have been secretly dispatched from the intelligence service: Kate Cartwright, a friend of the family who lost her beloved brother at the Somme and who, in the realm of the spiritual, has her own special gift; and the mysterious Captain Donovan, recently returned from Europe. Top secret plans for weapons developed by Lord Highmount’s company have turned up in Berlin, and there is reason to believe enemy spies will be in attendance. As the guests arrive, it becomes clear that each has something they would rather keep hidden. Then, when a storm descends, they find themselves trapped on the island. Soon one of their number will die. For Blackwater Abbey is haunted in more ways than one . . . . An unrelenting, gripping mystery, packed with twists and turns and a kindling of romance, A House of Ghosts is the perfect cold-weather read.
