Included in this collection are such landmark tales as Count Magnus, set in the wilds of Sweden; Number 13, a distinctive tale about a haunted hotel room; Casting the Runes, a richly complex tale of sorcery that served as the basis for the classic horror film Curse of the Demon; and Oh, Whistle, and I ll Come to You, My Lad, one of the most frightening tales in literature. The appendix includes several rare texts, including A Night in King s College Chapel, James s first known ghost story.
