Excerpt from Real Ghost Stories The contents of the two Volumes, slightly cur tailed, were, a few years later, brought out as one book, but the three volumes have long been out of print and are practically unknown to the present generation. I remember when I was a child my Father read some of these stories aloud to us as he was making his collection and I remember, too, how thrilled and awed we were, and how at times they brought a creepy feeling when at night I had to mount many flights of stairs to my bedroom at the top of the house.

Excerpt from Famous Modern Ghost Stories Ghosts have always haunted literature, and doubtless always will. Specters seem never to wear out or to die, but renew their tissue both of person and of raiment, in marvelous fashion, so that their number increases with a Malthusian relentlessness. We of to - day have the ghosts that haunted our ancestors, as well as our own modern revenants, and there's no earthly use trying to banish or exorcise them by such a simple thing as disbelief in them. Schopenhauer asserts that a belief in ghosts is born with man, that it is found in all ages and in all lands, and that no one is free from it. Since accounts vary, and our carli est antecedents were poor diarists, it is 'difficult to establish the apostolic succession of spooks in actual life, but in literature, the line reaches back as far as the primeval picture writing. A study of animism in primitive culture shows many interest Ing links between the past and the present in this matter. And anyhow, since man knows that whether or not he has seen a ghost, presently he'll be one, he's fascinated with the subject. And he creates ghosts, not merely in his own image, but according to his dreams of power. The more man knows of natural laws, the keener he is about the supernatural. He may claim to have laid aside superstition, but he isn't to be believed in that. Though he has discarded witch craft and alchemy, it is only that he may have more time for psychical research; true, he no longer dabbles with ancient magic, but that is because the modern types, as the ouija board, entertain him more. He dearly loves to traffic with that other world of which he knows so little and concerning which he is so curious.

Excerpt from True Irish Ghost Stories As the number of clergy in the above village who deal in ghost stories is strictly limited, the Post Office succeeded in deliver ing it safely. I wrote at once in reply, and got a story. In a letter bearing the Dublin postmark a correspondent, veiled in anony mity, sent me a religious tract with the curt note, Re ghost stories, will you please read this. I did so, but still fail to see the sender's point of View. Another person in a neighbouring parish declared that if I were their rector they would forthwith leave my church, and attend service else where. There are many, I fear, who adopt this attitude; but it will soon become out of date. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Ghost Stories of an Antiquary I wrote these stories at long intervals, and most of them were read to patient friends, usually at the season of Christmas. One of these friends offered to illustrate them, and it was agreed that, if he would do that, I would consider the question of publishing them. Four pictures he completed, which will be found in this volume, and then, very quickly and unexpectedly, he was taken away. This is the reason why the greater part of the stories are not provided with illustrations. Those who knew the artist will understand how much I wished to give a permanent form even to a fragment of his work; others will appreciate the fact that here a remem brance is made of one in whom many friend ships centred. The stories themselves do not make any very exalted claim. If any of them succeed in causing their readers to feel pleasantly uncomfortable when walking along a solitary road at nightfall, or sitting over a dying fire in the small hours, my purpose in writing them will have been attained.
