Richard Middleton is one of the many authors who, despite great merit, have been almost entirely forgotten today.

This collection of short stories contains his best-known short story, The Ghost Ship, a skillfully written horror story. The other stories contained in this collection are not all horror stories, but cover a variety of genres and topics. – Summary by Carolin [chương_files]

Chapter: 45 | Listen:

This is a collection of short stories by Barry Pain, first published in 1914. While generally best-known for his horror and supernatural fiction, Barry Pain turns to general fiction, mystery, and humour in this volume. Sorely needed in 1914, one might say, and perhaps also sorely needed today. – Summary by Carolin [chương_files]
