Speechless, with no expression in her face, with no noise following her footfall, she came closer and closer—stopped—and slowly raised the knife.
Vengeful spirits, mysterious revenants, haunted objects and the odd benevolent phantom stalk the pages of Wilkie Collins’s short fiction, and yet his reputation as one of the great Victorian sensation and detective novelists has long overshadowed his inventive contributions to the ghost story genre.Published to celebrate the bicentenary of Collins’s birth, this new anthology presents eight tales of the unearthly to celebrate this lesser-known side of the writer’s imaginative and ground-breaking fiction. Opening with a new introduction exploring Collins’s talents for pushing the boundaries of genre writing, the classic stories collected here show a master storyteller at work as they pulse with awful visions, mortal dread and the strange wiles of restless ghosts.
