Overview
An incredible anthology of truly fascinating Victorian tales of the supernatural.From a dancing automaton running amok at a ball, to a prehistoric beast lurking in the depths of a Yorkshire cave, this anthology explores the nature of the ‘old weird’, and unordinary stories which go outside the boundaries of everyday life.
The anthology includes not only stories by well-known writers like Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Jerome K. Jerome, but also by long-forgotten authors such as D. F. Hannigan and Reginald Bacchus. Focusing on the idea and history of what can be classified as ‘old weird’, compared to the ‘new weird’, Rennison applies experience and knowledge of Victorian literary history to bring these supernatural tales to the surface.
