A new collection of Anglo-American “Gothic” stories offers readers exciting stories about ghosts and much more, incomprehensible, scary and supernatural from such luminaries of the genre as J. S. Le Fanu, Montague R. James, E. F. Benson, Algernon Blackwood and others. Almost all translations were made specifically for this edition and are published for the first time. “...And then a ghostly white, fuzzy column of light, nimbly flickering in the shadow of the crowns, stepped forward and, hesitating, like an indecisive diver, moved onto the flooded moonlit space... Frozen against the backdrop of gloomy yew trees, causing all the shades of her face and dress to give way to milky whiteness, she looked not like a human being, but like an idealized image of a virgin, as if some artist, with a few strokes, had reproduced in wax his vision that was already slipping from memory" (J D. Beresford. Night of Creation.
