An author’s talents may seem obvious and indisputable as they move words and ideas into gathered phrases and stories. But where do these ideas and stories come from? A lonely thought that suddenly gathers form? An inspiration from a Muse? A suggestion from an everyday event? Perhaps in the case of their darker, more malevolent stories, other forces are at work. They help to nourish single words into sentences and paragraphs that ease themselves from the shadows and are suddenly upon us in twisted revelation that may thrill, may disturb, but will always engage and help us explore the edge of darkness where some of the very best literature patiently lurks …. waiting …. for the likes of me and you. 1 - Stories From the Shadows - Ghosts - An Introduction 2 - A Ghost Story by Mark Twain 3 - My Own True Ghost Story by Rudyard Kipling 4 - The Canterville Ghost - Part 1 by Oscar Wilde 5 - The Canterville Ghost - Part 2 by Oscar Wilde 6 - The Eyes by Edith Wharton 7 - Only A Dream by H Rider Haggard 8 - The Apparition of Mrs Veal by Daniel Defoe 9 - The Tapestried Chamber by Walter Scott 10 - The Judge's House by Bram Stoker 11 - The Boarded Window by Ambrose Bierce 12 - The Closed Window by A C Benson 13 - The Ghost in the Clock Room by Hesba Stretton 14 - The Open Door - Part 1 by Margaret Oliphant 15 - The Open Door - Part 2 by Margaret Oliphant 16 - The Shadows on the Wall by Mary E Wilkins Freeman 17 - The Last House in C Street by Mrs Craik 18 - The Story of the Green House, Wallington by Allen Upward 19 - Thurnley Abbey by Perceval Landon 20 - Christmas Eve at a Cornish Manor House by Clara Venn 21 - To Let by B M Croker 22 - The Haunted Orchard by Richard Le Gallienne 23 - The Ghost at the Rath by Rosa Mulholland 24 - The Tyburn Ghost by Wilhelmina FitzClarence, The Countess of Munster 25 - The Botathen Ghost from Footprints of Former Men in Far Cornwall by the Reverend R S Hawker 26 - The Spectre of Tappington - Part 1 by Richard Harris Barham 27 - The Spectre of Tappington - Part 2 by Richard Harris Barham 28 - The Spectre Bridegroom by William Hunt 29 - John Charrington's Wedding by Edith Nesbit 30 - A Spirit Elopement by Clotilde Graves 31 - Reality or Delusion by Mrs Ellen Wood 32 - The Phantom Coach by Amelia Edwards 33 - The 9.30 Up-Train by Sabine Baring-Gould 34 - The Story of the Rippling Train by Mary Louisa Molesworth 35 - The Story of 'The Spaniards', Hammersmith by Kate and Hesketh Pritchard 36 - The Old Nurse's Story by Elizabeth Gaskell 37 - A Smiling Ghost by W G Kelly 38 - Let Loose by Mary Cholmondeley.wav 39 - The Cold Embrace by Mary Elizabeth Braddon 40 - The Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing But the Truth by Rhoda Broughton 41 - Since I Died by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps 42 - A Collector's Company by R H Malden |
