Book Excerpt: ...sum in value five times the fortune which she has a right to expect from her husband. This shall lie in your hands, together with her dowry, and you may apply the united sum as suits her interest best; it shall be all exclusively hers while she lives: is that liberal?"Douw assented, and inwardly acknowledged that fortune had been extraordinarily kind to his niece; the stranger, he thought, must be both wealthy and generous, and such an offer was not to be despised, though made by a humourist, and one of no very prepossessing presence. Rose had no very high pretensions for she had but a modest dowry, which she owed entirely to the generosity of her uncle; neither had she any right to raise exceptions on the score of birth, for her own origin was far from splendid, and as the other objections, Gerald resolved, and indeed, by the usages of the time, was warranted in resolving, not to listen to them for a moment."Sir" said he, addressing the stranger, "your offer is liberal, and whatever hesitation I may...

Book Excerpt: ...All is still and sombre. At this hour the simple traffic of the thinly-peopled country is over, and nothing can be more solitary.From this jungle, nevertheless, through which the mists of evening are already creeping, she sees a gigantic man approaching her.In that poor and primitive country robbery is a crime unknown. She, therefore, has no fears for her pound of tea, and pint of gin, and sixteen shillings in silver which she is bringing home in her pocket. But there is something that would have frighted another woman about this man.He is gaunt, sombre, bony, dirty, and dressed in a black suit which a beggar would hardly care to pick out of the dust.This ill-looking man nodded to her as he stepped on the road."I don't know you," she said.He nodded again."I never sid ye neyawheere," she exclaimed sternly."Fine evening, Mother Carke," he says, and holds his snuff-box toward her.She widened the distance between them by a step or so, and said again sternly and pale,"I hev nowt to say to thee, whoe'er thou beest.""You know Laura Silver Bell?""That's a byneyam; the lass's neyam is Laura Lew," she answered, looking straight before her."One name's as good as...

"Ghostly Tales" is a collection of supernatural stories written by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu, an Irish writer best known for his contributions to the Gothic and horror genres during the Victorian era. The book was first published in 1851 and contains a series of eerie and atmospheric tales that have since become classics of the genre. Le Fanu's stories often delve into themes of mystery, suspense, and the supernatural, drawing readers into a world where the line between the natural and the supernatural is blurred. His prose style is characterized by its rich description, intricate plotting, and psychological depth, which adds layers of complexity to his narratives. One of the most famous stories in "Ghostly Tales" is "Carmilla," a vampire novella that predates Bram Stoker's "Dracula" and has had a significant influence on subsequent vampire fiction. "Carmilla" tells the story of a young woman who becomes entangled with a mysterious and seductive female vampire, exploring themes of desire, identity, and the uncanny. Another notable story in the collection is "Green Tea," which follows the disturbing experiences of a clergyman haunted by a malevolent spectral monkey. This tale delves into the psychological torment of the protagonist as he grapples with the terrifying apparition that seems to be driving him to madness. Other stories in "Ghostly Tales" include "The Familiar," "The Watcher," and "The Fortunes of Sir Robert Ardagh," each offering its own unique blend of supernatural intrigue and Gothic atmosphere. Overall, "Ghostly Tales" showcases Le Fanu's mastery of the macabre and his ability to evoke a sense of unease and dread in his readers. His stories continue to captivate and chill audiences, making "Ghostly Tales" a must-read for fans of classic horror literature.
