Sir Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle DL (22 May 1859 - 7 July 1930) was a Scottish physician and writer who is most noted for his fictional stories about the detective Sherlock Holmes, which are generally considered milestones in the field of crime fiction. He is also known for writing the fictional adventures of a second character he invented, Professor Challenger, and for popularising the mystery of the Mary Celeste. He was a prolific writer whose other works include fantasy and science fiction stories, plays, romances, poetry, non-fiction, and historical novels. Sherlock Holmes is a fictional detective created by Scottish author and physician Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, a graduate of the University of Edinburgh Medical School. A London-based "consulting detective" whose abilities border on the fantastic, Holmes is famous for his astute logical reasoning, his ability to adopt almost any disguise, and his use of forensic science skills to solve difficult cases. Holmes, who first appeared in publication in 1887, was featured in four novels and 56 short stories. The first novel, A Study in Scarlet, appeared in Beeton's Christmas Annual in 1887 and the second, The Sign of the Four, in Lippincott's Monthly Magazine in 1890. The character grew tremendously in popularity with the first series of short stories in The Strand Magazine, beginning with "A Scandal in Bohemia" in 1891; further series of short stories and two novels published in serial form appeared between then and 1927. The stories cover a period from around 1880 up to 1914. All but four stories are narrated by Holmes's friend and biographer, Dr. John H. Watson; two are narrated by Holmes himself ("The Blanched Soldier" and "The Lion's Mane") and two others are written in the third person ("The Mazarin Stone" and "His Last Bow"). In two stories ("The Musgrave Ritual" and "The Gloria Scott"), Holmes tells Watson the main story from his memories, while Watson becomes the narrator of the frame story. The first and fourth novels, A Study in Scarlet and The Valley of Fear, each include a long interval of omniscient narration recounting events unknown to either Holmes or Watson.

"La catacumba nueva" (The new catacomb) es un relato de terror del escritor escocés Arthur Conan Doyle. Así como Edgar Allan Poe nos ha regalado una estremecedora historia sobre enterrados vivos, Doyle se suma a esta inquietante posibilidad desde una perspectiva completamente nueva. La maestría literaria de Sir Arthur Conan Doyle no se refleja únicamente en la archifamosa serie de Sherlock Holmes, el excéntrico gentleman eduardiano que elevó la pesquisa detectivesca a brillante manifestación de la inteligencia más sofisticada. En este cuento de terror el autor escocés se nos revela también como un consumado maestro en el arte de contar historias en las que la intriga se asocia portentosamente con el estremecimiento del miedo y la sorpresa de lo insólito, todo ello con el único objeto de mantener hipnotizada la atención del lector. Aquí se reúnen dos enemigos: Kennedy y Burguer, quienes comparten el severo pasatiempo del estudio y cierto afecto por las catacumbas. Pero los une otro vínculo, acaso más estrecho: una mujer. Estos dos arqueólogos rivales visitan en Roma una catacumba nueva que ha descubierto el primero de ellos. Por un antiguo asunto de faldas acontece en el interior de la catacumba un extraño suceso de final inesperado.Es francamente excelente. El autor homenajea a Poe de un modo casi perfecto, logrando momentos de tensión tan buenos casi como los de El barril de amontillado. ¡Absolutamente recomendable!

"Start a story by Conan Doyle and you cannot stop reading, whether you are ten or sixty." -Michael Dirda "The immense talent, passion and literary brilliance that Conan Doyle brought to his work gives him a unique place in English letters."-Stephen Fry Arthur Conan Doyle's Tales of Terror and Mystery (1922) is a haunting collection of twelve stories that highlights his extraordinary skills of storytelling. The first six stories are bloodcurdling tales of horror, and includes the macabre classic "The New Catacomb". The last six stories, closer in form to the Sherlock Holmes work, includes the classic railroad mystery, "The Lost Special". One of the stand-out works in the entire collection is "The Horror of the Heights"; in a story that straddles both the science fiction and horror genres, the journals of a missing pilot reveal the existence of terrifying creatures that lurk in the upper atmosphere. "The New Catacomb", in Doyle's tribute to Edgar Allan Poe, tells the revenge story of two rival archeologists as they sink deeper into an endless Roman catacomb. In the evocative story "The Lost Special", a train has mysteriously disappeared without trace between two stations. When the only evidence of the enigma is the dead body of the locomotive driver, the local newspaper becomes a platform to solve the mystery. The intrigue of speculation and reasoning is on par with the best of the Sherlock Holmes adventures. Tense, disturbing, and dark, these stories will keep readers captivated until the final page. Other stories included are: "The Leather Funnel", "The Case of Lady Sannox", "The Terror of Blue John Gap", "The Brazilian Cat", "The Beetle-Hunter", "The Man with the Watches", "The Japanned Box", "The Black Doctor", and "The Jew's Breastplate". With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Tales of Terror and Mystery is both modern and readable.

After all they've been through, Dan, Abby, and Jordan are excited to take one last road trip together, and they're just not going to think about what will happen when the summer ends. But on their way to visit Jordan's uncle in New Orleans, the three friends notice that they're being followed . . . and photographed. Then Dan starts receiving messages from someone he didn't expect to hear from again—someone who died last Halloween. When the trio arrives in New Orleans and the strange occurrences only escalate, Dan is forced to accept that everything that has happened to him in the past year may not be a coincidence, but fate—a fate that ties Dan to a group called the Bone Artists, who have a sinister fascination with notorious killers of the past. Now Dan's only hope is that he will make it out of his senior trip alive. Don't miss Madeleine Roux's all-new gothic horror novel, House of Furies.

Tales of Terror and Mystery is a volume of non-Sherlock Holmes stories by the masterful creator of the inimitable detective. "The Horror of the Heights" A few abandoned items, which include a pair of broken binoculars and a notebook, are found by a farmhand. The notebook has some macabre commentary, but is incomplete because it is missing the first few pages. It has been studied and it appears to have remnants of blood. "The Leather Funnel" A story in which dreams are effected by objects that retell the purpose they served. In this tale of terror, a leather funnel tells the tale of a horrbile execution. "The New Catacomb" Two enemies, Kennedy and Burger, are students of Roman remains. Burger embarks on a three week affair with a girl and returns alone, also having found a new catacomb. Kennedy attempts to get the story from him. "The Case of Lady Sannox" The husband of Lady Sannox develops a sinister plot when he finds out that his wife is seeing another man. "The Terror of Blue John Gap" A story written in the form of a personal diary that investigates the strange disappearances of sheep into the Blue John Gap. "The Brazilian Cat" A man in desperate need of money contacts his eccentric cousin in hopes of borrowing it from him. Although his cousin is friendly, the wife is unwelcoming. However, nothing can prepare him for his encounter with the Brazilian Cat that is ferocious. "The Lost Special" A man underlying a death sentence shines a light on what is called the most inexplixable crimes of the century. The case involves an abundant request of specials for any given day and the case of the disappearance of one. "The Beetle-Hunter" A medical man answers a strange ad in the paper concerning beetles and is met with a most peculiar task. "The Man with the Watches" Three people disappear from their various compartments on a train. Also, in one of these compartments a man is found dead because of a bullet to the chest. "The Japanned Box" A man is a tutor to two young boys in a household. Their father is very quiet and studious and keeps to himself. However, he has a room that no one has set foot in until the tutor saves the youngest from a well. The tutor in this manner learns from the servants about his employer's past as an obnoxious drunk. His wife was the one to tame him and he carries a black Japanned Box, which is believed to hold her letters, with him when he stays somewhere else. "The Jew's Breastplate" A museum of fine Oriental archaeology is passed to a new owner who is a close friend of the narrator. After receiving an anonymous warning letter, the museum is robbed. The letter is a warning to the new owner to have more than one guard on watch and is written in a script similar to that of the previous owner. "The Black Doctor" A story about a doctor, referred to as the Black Doctor, who was a respectable physician. He was a bachelor for a considerably long time and then became engaged to a woman thirteen years his junior. In June before the wedding, the woman is interviewed and the engagement is suddenly called off. The Black Doctor avoids her and therefore avoids the rest of the town.
