James' ghost stories formed a firm foundation for the modern horror story with his presence felt in all forms of literature and media. This special collectable edition of short stories features a new introduction by the greatest current inheritor of the Jamesian mantle, Ramsey Campbell, along with one of Ramsey's own tales. The Ramsey Campbell Special Editions. Campbell is the greatest inheritor of a tradition that reaches back through H.P. Lovecraft and M.R. James to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and the early Gothic writers. The dark, masterful work of the painter Henry Fuseli, a friend of Mary Wollstonecraft, is used on these special editions to invoke early literary investigations into the supernatural.
