<div>A classic collection of haunting stories by Charles Dickens, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Robert Louis Stevenson, and more. 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 is illustrated with exquisitely eerie artwork.</div>

Ghostly Tales

<div>Sometimes the greatest horrors lurk in the most mundane places This collection features some of M. R. James&rsquo;s greatest tales of the supernatural world crossing over into our own.

In &ldquo;The Treasure of Abbot Thomas,&rdquo; an antiquary who has discovered the location of a treasure gets far more than he bargained for. James&rsquo;s tales of the terror that hides beneath the prosaic continue to stun more than a century after they were written.
