'The evil spirit, who enthralled my senses in the shape of that portrait, may have been just as near me, just as energetic, just as malignant, though I saw him not.' This collection brings together some of the greatest ghost stories ever written. Featuring silent spectres, petrifying phantoms and all manner of ghastly ghosts, the tales here will terrify and entertain in equal measure. Set in shadowy cathedrals, sinister residences and familiar streets turned bad, the best of these writers take the places we feel most safe and imbue them with a sinister ambience. Whether the apparitions are discovered by intrepid adventurers, solemn priests or mild-mannered academics, the haunted must reconsider their most basic assumptions and work out how best to respond to these supernatural assaults. Included in this anthology are some of the genre's most accomplished writers, such as M. R. James, Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu, E. F. Benson, Guy de Maupassant and William Hope Hodgson.
