A vengeful phantom lurks in a country graveyard.
A whaling crew becomes trapped on a haunted ship.
A human skull is kept locked in a cupboard, but
sometimes at night, it screams. . . .
This collection of tales transports the reader to a time when staircases
creaked in old manor houses, and a candle could be blown out by a gust
of wind, or by a passing ghost. Penned by some of the greatest Victorian
novelists and masters of the ghost story genre, each story is
illustrated with exquisitely eerie artwork in this special gift edition
featuring an embossed textured case and a ribbon marker.
