Step into the haunting world of Sheridan Le Fanu, one of the true masters of Victorian Gothic terror. «Carmilla and Other Horror Stories» gathers fifteen of his most chilling tales, where shadows whisper, spirits return, and every creak of the floor may spell doom. At its heart lies «Carmilla», the groundbreaking vampire novella that inspired generations of writers, blending sensuality with supernatural dread. Alongside it are «Green Tea», a tale of spectral obsession; «The Familiar and Mr. Justice Harbottle», grim accounts of vengeance from beyond; and «The Room in the Dragon Volant», a macabre gothic mystery. «An Account of Some Strange Disturbances in Aungier Street» delivers unforgettable ghost stories. Strange fates unfold in «Ultor De Lacy», «The Child that Went with the Fairies», «The White Cat of Drumgunniol», and the unforgettable «Schalken the Painter». Together, all these masterpieces form a treasury of unease, where mystery, folklore, and supernatural horror intertwine to reveal why Le Fanu remains the most haunting voice of Victorian Gothic fiction.
