This is a book to be read by a blazing fire on a winters night, with the curtains drawn close and the doors securely locked. The unquiet souls of the dead, both as fictional creations and as real apparitions, roam the pages of this haunting selection of ghost stories by Rex Collings.
Some of these stories are classics while others are lesser-known gems unearthed from this vintage era of tales of the supernatural. There are stories from distant lands - Fishers Ghost by John Lang is set in Australia and A Ghostly Manifestation by A Clergyman is set in Calcutta. In this selection, Sir Walter Scott (a Victorian in spirit if not in fact), keeps company with Edgar Allen Poe, Sheridan Le Fan

Ghost stories.
В данный сборник вошли рассказы о привидениях авторов Викторианской и Эдвардианской эпохи. В книгу включены произведения классиков: Эдгара Аллана По, Оскара Уайлда, Шеридана Ле Фаню и др. Леденящие душу, страшно интересные истории! Лично мне понравились практически все, что представлены в этом сборнике. Издание зарубежное, рассказы без сокращений. Приемлемая цена (около 200 рублей), приятное оформление. Книгу рекомендую всем любителям чтения в оригинале!
