Smith, a University of Oxford athlete, witnesses strange things. Edward, a student in Egyptology, collects ancient artefacts, a mummy as well. Not only does he collect them, but Smith suspects that Edward is trying to reanimate the mummy. His suspicions grow bigger when he sees the mummy disappear and then reappear. Will Smith confront Edward and what will follow after that? Is it actually possible to reanimate an artefact or it is simply fruit of imagination? Who will make it out alive – Smith, Edward, or the mummy? "Lot No. 249" holds the answers. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was born in Scotland and studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh. After his studies, he worked as a ship’s surgeon on various boats. During the Second Boer War, he was an army doctor in South Africa. When he came back to the United Kingdom, he opened his own practice and started writing crime books. He is best known for his thrilling stories about the adventures of Sherlock Holmes. He published four novels and more than 50 short-stories starring the detective and Dr Watson, and they play an important role in the history of crime fiction. Other than the Sherlock Holmes series, Doyle wrote around thirty more books, in genres such as science-fiction, fantasy, historical novels, but also poetry, plays, and non-fiction.

While Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is most widely known today for his logical skeptic, Sherlock Holmes, horror aficionados recognize him as the inventor of the malevolent mummy, the writer of one of English literature's best ghost stories, and an early dabbler in Lovecraftian weird fiction. Indeed, Doyle is to the mummy what Stoker is to the vampire, and his tales of pickaxe-wielding serial killers, haunted torture instruments, specters in the sunless North Pole, seductive werewolves, gelatinous monsters in the skies above us, and seances gone awry are just as chilling as Holmes adventures are thrilling. Among its lushly illustrated stories, this annotated collection of Doyle's very best horror stories includes his two famous mummy stories (which were merged to form the plot of the 1932 Boris Karloff film), his aviation spine-tingler "The Horror of the Heights" (which presages Lovecraft beautifully), and his most elegant ghost story, "The Captain of the Polestar," not to mention two of Sherlock Holmes' most terrifying cases. Richly painted with a broad brush, Doyle's supernatural fiction spans a myriad of delightful tropes -- zombies, psychopaths, torture chambers, werewolves, vampires, reincarnations, haunted antiques, rampaging elementals, and more than one old fashioned English ghost -- so whether you are a fan of the Great Detective or tales of the great beyond, you are sure to be pleased.

'There was a rumour, too, that he was a devil-worshipper, or something of that sort, and also that he had the evil eye...' Arthur Conan Doyle was the greatest genre writer Britain has ever produced. Throughout a long writing career, he drew on his own medical background, his travels, and his increasing interest in spiritualism and the occult to produce a spectacular array of Gothic stories. Many of Doyle's writings are recognized as the very greatest tales of terror. They range from hauntings in the polar wasteland to evil surgeons and malevolent jungle landscapes. This collection brings together over thirty of Conan Doyle's best "Gothic Tales," in a scholarly edition for the first time. Darryl Jones's introduction discusses the contradictions in Conan Doyle's very public life - as a medical doctor who became obsessed with the spirit world, or a British imperialist drawn to support Irish Home Rule - and shows the ways in which these found articulation in that most anxious of all literary forms, the Gothic.
