Even before he created Sherlock Holmes, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle terrified and delighted readers with tales of mysterious forces that defy rational explanation. These stories capture the unique draw of the uncanny and the curiosity that compels us all to ask, “Could it be true?” Included within are nine spine-tingling tales, such as: mournful cries in an ice-bound sea; a potion that allows the user to commune with ghosts; an Egyptian priest who cannot die; and a mesmerist of unrivaled power. Brace yourself for these and other chilling encounters!
Classic stories of horror and terror include:
• The Parasite
• The Mystery of Sasassa Valley
• J. Habakuk Jephson's Statement
• The Captain of the "Pole-Star"
• The Great Keinplatz Experiment
