Sixteen spine-tingling tales from the dark side of our nation's literary history include stories by Sarah Orne Jewett, Henry James, Mark Twain, Mary E. Wilkins Freeman, Edith Wharton, Willa Cather, and other literary luminaries. The collection begins with Edgar Allan Poe's Ligeia, a classic Gothic horror tale of a love stronger than death, followed by The Gray Champion, Nathaniel Hawthorne's fable of a supernatural hero who reappears in times of national danger. Other stories include Grayling; or, 'Murder Will Out' by William Gilmore Simms; The Real Right Thing by Henry James; Lady Ferry by Sarah Orne Jewett; My Platonic Sweetheart by Mark Twain; Frank R. Stockton's The Philosophy of Relative Existences; The Upper Berth by F. Marion Crawford; and An Itinerant House by Emma Frances Dawson. Ambrose Bierce's mystery classic, The Moonlit Road, appears here, along with The Conquering Will by Harriet Prescott Spofford; The Shadows on the Wall by Mary E. Wilkins Freeman; Edith Wharton's The Eyes; Consequences by Willa Cather; Call Me From the Valley by Manly Wade Wellman; and Parke Godwin's The Fire When It Comes.
