These uncanny stories feature secret rooms, spinning wheels, phantom carriages, haunted portraits, hidden messages, unsolved murders, and thwarted love affairs. Set in Scotland, Cornwall, and Spain, each tale is told by an eyewitness narrator, including a gardener, a tutor, and a governess. However, the identity of the author remains a mystery.

The collection begins with a macabre house party and concludes with a haunting on New Year's Eve.

First published in 1886 and reprinted here with a bewitching introduction by Kirsty Logan, the spooky tales in Nine Authentic Ghost Stories are guaranteed to send a tingle down your spine. Whatever you do, don't read them after midnight!
