M. R. James entirely redefined the ghost story for the modern reader. Abandoning many of the formal Gothic clichés of his predecessors, he chose instead realistic contemporary settings, whilst blending his esoteric interest in antiquarian subjects to fashion his own inimitable tales of horror. This is the most complete collection possible of the works of M. R. James in the US, offering almost all of the ghost stories and many rare texts appearing here for the first time in digital format. This comprehensive eBook provides numerous illustrations, informative introductions, rare texts and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1)
Please note - these eight stories cannot appear due to copyright restrictions: WAILING WELL, THERE WAS A MAN DWELT BY A CHURCHYARD, RATS, AFTER DARK IN THE PLAYING FIELDS, THE EXPERIMENT, THE MALICE OF INANIMATE OBJECTS, A VIGNETTE and THE FENSTANTON WITCH. Once new texts enter the public domain, they will be added to the eBook as a free update.
