Synopsis "What Was It? and Others: Fitz-James O'Brien's Best Weird Fiction & Ghost Stories: Tales of Mystery, Murder, Fantasy & Horror"
Our mission is to provide the world with beautiful, accessible, illuminating editions of classic horror fiction, introducing these chilling gems to new generations, making them gorgeously illustrated and giving you critical, historical, and artistic insights with every single story. This is one of those books.Building on the weird tales of Hoffmann and Poe, Fitz-James O'Brien is one of horror and fantasy literature's best hidden secrets. His astonishingly original forays into speculative fiction include an army of possessed Christmas dolls, the sudden and short-lived manifestation of an invisible monster, a disappearing room possessed by cannibal spirits, a murderous scientist's discovery of a microscopic woman in a drop of water, a child's symbiotic relationship to a grave, and a haunted gallows-tree. This unique and unrivalled edition of O'Brien's best weird tales, fantasies, and mysteries includes critical introductions to each story, contextual information, and chilling illustrations that breathe life into O'Brien's Gothic visions and bizarre fantasias.TALES INCLUDED in this ANNOTATED EDITION: The Pot of Tulips The Bohemian The Dragon Fang The Demon of the Gibbet The Diamond Lens The Wondersmith Jubal the Ringer The Lost Room The Golden Ingot The Ghosts What Was It?
