Supernatural Short Stories by Charles Dickens

Charles Dickens wrote a number of supernatural and horror stories, some of which were included in his longer works, while others were published in magazines. This collection gathers them, providing an insight into the author's storytelling apprenticeship and his steady growth towards excellence.

With its classic takes on perennially exciting themes, this volume will delight Dickens enthusiasts as well as the casual reader eager to hear an eerie tale told by one of the English language's greatest raconteurs* Booklist * All his characters are my personal friends - I am constantly comparing them with living persons, and living persons with them. -- Leo Tolstoy

A literary phenomenon in his lifetime and renowned as much for his journalism and public speaking as for his novels, Charles Dickens now ranks as the most important Victorian writer and one of the most influential and popular authors in the English language. His memorable and vividly rendered characters and his combination of humour, trenchant satire and compassion have left an indelible mark on our collective imagination.
