Ghost Stories of an Antiquary

Ghost Stories of an Antiquary

Author(s): M R James

Location(s): St Bertrand de Comminges

Genre(s): Short Stories

Era(s): Early 1900s

Canon Alberic’s Scrap-book is one of the stories in this collection, and this is set in the Pyrenees.
M. R. James is the master of the English ghost story, whose tales are inhabited not by ethereal spirits, but by terrifying, palpable forces of evil. In these four stories figures appear in paintings, demonic voices are heard, books awaken ancient horrors – and ordinary objects and situations are transformed into inescapable nightmares
