Omschrijving
"The Dead Do Not Sleep Soundly in the West Country."
Sabine Baring-Gould was one of the most versatile minds of the 19th century, but it was in the realm of the supernatural that his imagination truly flickered with a dark, cold light. A Book of Ghosts is a cornerstone of Victorian weird fiction, moving away from simple "jump scares" to explore the lingering, uncomfortable presence of those who refuse to leave this world behind.
The Master of the Folkloric Fright: Baring-Gould's ghosts are not mere optical illusions; they are manifestations of history, guilt, and the rugged landscape itself. Drawing on his deep knowledge of English folklore and antiquarian history, he crafts stories where the supernatural feels as tangible as the ancient stone walls and foggy marshes of Devon and Cornwall. His work excels at the "slow burn" of dread—where a simple domestic object or a misunderstood local legend becomes the herald of something truly unsettling.
A contemporary of M.R. James and Bram Stoker, Baring-Gould offers a more grounded, yet equally terrifying, vision of the afterlife. This volume is an essential cornerstone for any library of classic ghost stories, Victorian Gothic, and supernatural fiction.
