Sheridan Le Fanu was lauded by contemporaries such as M. R. James for his innovations in the ghost story and mystery genres, and his mastery of conjuring atmosphere and driving stories to thrilling narrative crescendos. And yet, aside from some regularly anthologised short stories and novellas, much of the writer' s fiction remains unknown despite its quality. Aiming to firmly position Sheridan Le Fanu alongside other canonical horror writers published by the British Library, this anthology focuses on some of his lesser-known stories, exploring eight thoroughly Gothic tales of murderous families, dark castles and ghosts whose business with the living remains unfinished.
J. T. Sheridan Le Fanu (1814-1873) was a leading Victorian journalist, magazine editor and prolific mystery writer who penned more than ten novels and published many more short stories in literary magazines. Today he is best known for his 1872 short story collection In a Glass Darkly, and for the influential vampire novella Carmilla.
