In the quaint town of Everwick, nestled atop a hill and veiled by ancient woods, stands the imposing Wraithwood Manor. Its tall spires and gothic arches are more than just architectural marvels; they are silent witnesses to centuries of history, tales of love and loss, secrets and discoveries, and bonds that transcend time. To the townsfolk, the manor is an enigma, shrouded in mystery and legends. Whispers of ghostly apparitions, long-lost treasures, and ethereal melodies that float with the wind have kept many a child awake with a mix of fear and fascination. Yet, for all its mystique, the heart of Wraithwood's story is one of family — a lineage that has weathered storms both real and metaphorical, binding generations of Wraithwoods to the manor and to each other. As we journey through the grand hallways and hidden chambers of this timeless estate, we encounter Eleanor, a young heiress rediscovering her roots; Elara, a spiritual medium with an uncanny connection to the manor's ethereal residents; and Thomas, a scholar determined to chronicle the manor's vast history. Together, this trio unveils the layers of Wraithwood, navigating its joys and challenges, and forever altering its legacy. In " Haunted Inheritance," every shadow holds a tale, every whisper an echo from the past, inviting readers to step into a world where the line between the living and the spectral is delicately blurred. Join us as we traverse through time, uncovering the tales that make Wraithwood Manor the enigmatic wonder that it is. Dive deep, dear reader, and let the story of Wraithwood enthrall and enchant you.

Moving to my stepfather's English country mansion sounded so promising. But the Arnaud Manor is neglected and unwelcoming, and I get the feeling it isn't exactly uninhabited. Something wants to hurt us--especially my little sister, Tabby. Okay, so I might be a little sensitive lately. My parents act oblivious to me, my old life is far away in San Francisco, and the gorgeous guy I just met tells me terrible stories about the infamous Madame Arnaud who lived here long ago, and about missing children and vengeful spirits. The kind of stories that are impossible to believe--until you're living in one of them, fighting to protect everyone you love...

We love ghost stories here at Wildside Press—witness the fact that we have now now reached our eighth volume in this series. Very few other genres are so versatile and enduring as tales of the supernatural. Ghosts can (and have) appeared in literature for thousands of years, in all countries and continents (and times past, present, and future) throughout the world. But the Victorian era particularly seemed to embrace ghost stories, and that’s when Christmas ghost tales became not just a staple of literature, but a requirement. Seemingly all British fiction magazines (and many newspapers) had to publish at least one ghostly tale in the month of December. Proving that the ghost story tradition is strong to the present day, we have an original story from Phyllis Ann Karr (author of the Frostflower and Thorn series), plus two drawn from Alfred Hitchcock’s Mystery Magazine (which strayed a little more into the fantastic and horrific in the 1960s that it does today), plus another modern story by Wallace West, who is best known as a science fiction writer. Good stuff. Here is the complete lineup: UNSEEN—UNFEARED, by Francis Stevens RUNNING WOLF, by Algernon Blackwood UNCLE CHRISTIAN’S INHERITANCE, by Erckmann-Chatrian MOMMY, by Mary Elizabeth Counselman A GHOST’S REVENGE, by Tighe Hopkins THE HAUNTED HOUSE, by George MacDonald THE THING IN THE UPPER ROOM, by Arthur Morrison DIE, GEORGE!, by Stephen Wasylyk HEINRICH, by Wallace West RESURGAM, by Rina Ramsay THE SPECTRE OF TAPPINGTON, by Thomas Ingoldsby THE INEXPERIENCED GHOST, by H.

The Salem witch trials, and the many narratives based on them, both contemporaneous and subsequent discussions, have had a powerful influence on the American national psyche, informing the nation’s political debates and propelling its fears. Perhaps one of the major reasons for the importance of the trials is how they conceive of and present a narrative of danger. The horror grows in and seems to threaten not just the body politic, but, perhaps more importantly, the domestic sanctuary. The home and hearth become a contested ground where good and evil fight for the souls of the inhabitants, or an infection that threatens to spread to other homes and, eventually, the entire community. The fear of witchcraft or demonic possession reveals not just a religious mania, but also a level of misogyny. Much has been made of the connections between witchcraft accusations and midwifery, homeopathy, and other, usually female, pursuits. The link between midwifery and witchcraft is especially interesting here, however, as it suggests an anxiety linked to notions of creation and procreation. This book proposes a link between the fears of usurped procreation elicited by the trials and fears of misdirected or usurped creativity. In many Gothic stories, the authors imagine their literary creations as children who have been transformed by malignant forces, much as the Puritans of 1692 feared that the devil was transforming their actual children. The home in the Gothic story becomes a warped version of the sacred domestic space of sentimental literature, and it transforms from refuge to place of terror. The authors examined here include Nathaniel Hawthorne, Louisa May Alcott, Rose Terry Cooke, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Shirley Jackson, Stephen King, and Ira Levin.
