Description
Through the electric silence of the séance, a terrible, hurtling force draws near. A play with the planchette invites a diabolical visitor to Radley Manor. A medium’s summoning of a lost child pitches them into mortal peril. In this haunting new collection, Emily Vincent presents 14 chilling classics and lost gems of séance fiction which evoke the most thrilling and thought-provoking aspects of the popular Victorian movement of spiritualism.
?Featuring tales by practicing mediums, sceptics and ghost-seekers including Arthur Conan Doyle, H. G. Wells, Florence Marryat and F. Scott Fitzgerald, this volume is a suffusion of spectral frights and satirical skewering’s, destined to linger with the reader long after the door to the séance has closed.
