COLLATION:…xii, [2], 134, [8] pp. CONDITION: Fine in Fine dust jacket. ** Modern limited edition of an anthology of ghost stories by Alice Perrin (1867-1934), an Indian-born, English author of novels and short stories. She was sent by her parents to be educated in England, but returned to India where she married an engineer, Charles Perrin, who worked for the India Public Works Department. Charles was put in charge of building an aqueduct in the jungle, and so Alice Perrin took to writing as a way to alleviate boredom. Her collection of ghost stories, "East of Suez" (1901), was compiled and published after her return to England, and she continued to write novels and stories about her time in India. ** The title story, "The Sistrum", has a junk-shop collector finding an African musical instrument which, having been used in sacrificial ceremonies, carries its own memories. Other stories include: "Caulfield's Crime", "Chunia, Ayah", "Powers of Darkness", "The Admiral's Dog", "Old Ayah", "The Brahminy Bull" and "The Footsteps in the Dust". Like others of these stories, "The Footsteps in the Dust" is set in colonial India, and paints an unflattering picture of one Captain Bogle, who took advantage at cards of Gunga Pershad, a merchant, and so inherited a small fortune. but only for a short while! ** Sarob Press is a small press which has published reprints of classic ghost and horror stories, as well as contemporary authors. This book is part of a series reprinting works by neglected, but worthy, woman ghost-story writers, the so-called "Mistresses Of The Macabre". Paul Lowe (illustratore). Book.

COLLATION: xii ,[2],124,[6] pp. CONDITION: Fine in Fine dust jacket.** Modern limited edition of an anthology of late Victorian ghost stories by the mysterious writer, Mary E. Penn. As she mainly wrote for the monthly magazine, The Argosy, owned by the prolific novelist, Ellen Wood (1814-1887), there is conjecture that they were one and the same. In any case, these stories are classic ghost stories; "In the Dark" concerns a nefarious deed and a tortured spirit, which finally finds a way to be set free.** Sarob Press is a small press which has published reprints of classic ghost and horror stories, as well as contemporary authors.

COLLATION: xii ,[2],112,[6] pp. CONDITION: Fine in Fine dust jacket.** Scarce modern limited edition of an anthology of late Victorian and Edwardian ghost stories by the Hull, England-born AUTHOR "Lettice Galbraith," aka Lizzie Susan Gibson, (1859-1932), first published in 1893 under the title "New Ghost Stories". The original publication was a cheaply-bound "yellowback", designed to be sold at railway stations and the like, with the result that very few have survived. This new collection includes the first book publication of another story, "The Blue Room". Lettice Galbraith, born Lizzie Susan Gibson, was a short-story writer and novelist. She tackled social issues affecting women, such as marriage and independence. But she returned every now and then to occult matters, such as in the 1906 "psychic detective" novel, "Burnt Spices." These are very much classic Victorian ghost stories, with shrieks in the night and occult tomes in the library. large houses in the countryside and weekend parties. just watch out for the hidden panel in the bedpost. and don't forget to pack the smelling-salts!** Sarob Press is a small press which has published reprints of classic ghost and horror stories, as well as contemporary authors.
