Show by M. R. James
Madam Crowl's Ghost and Other Tales of Mystery by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu.Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu...was in his own particular vein one of the best story-tellers of the nineteenth century; and the present volume contains a collection of forgotten tales by him, and of tales not previously known to be his. He stands absolutely in the first rank as a writer of ghost stories. That is my deliberate verdict, after reading all the supernatural tales I have been able to get hold of. Nobody sets the scene better than he, nobody touches in the effective detail more deftly. These are also the most recent in date; for, as was natural, Le Fanu made improvements in the proportions and in the conception of his short stories as time went on.Featured on Thin Ghost And Others.Public-domain recording courtesy of LibriVox (librivox.org).This episode includes AI-generated content.
