Fifteen ghost stories to hear around the Yule log. "It happened that I spent the last winter in a large country mansion, in the north of England, where we had a succession of visitors, and all manner of amusements-... In short, we began to tell ghost stories; and although some of the party professed an utter disbelief in apparitions, they proved to be as fertile as the believers in their contributions-relating something that had happened to themselves or their friends, as having undoubtedly occurred, or to all appearance, occurred-only, with the reservation, that it must certainly have been a dream.
The substance of these conversations fills the following pages, and I have told the stories as nearly as possible in the words of the original narrators."
