Beautiful collector's edition featuring Le Fanu's best stories, many of which influenced the next generation of classic horror: Bram Sotker, H.P. Lovecraft, Algernon Black wood and M.R. James. Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu (1814 1873) was a highly influential Irish author, born in Dublin, whose work spread across the English speaking world where his impression can be found in the stories of Wilklie Collins, M.R.
James, Bram Stoker and many others. Although trained as a lawyer, he became a writer of sensational literature, exploring the dark and fantastic, becoming one of the foundational purveyors of the classic horror ghost stories. His father was Richard Sheridan, playright of The Rivals and The School for Scandal. AUTHOR: Joseph Thomas Sheridan Le Fanu was an Irish writer of Gothic mystery tales, who was central to the development of the genre in the Victorian era. Author of 'The House by the Churchyard' (1863) and 'Uncle Silas' (1864), it is Le Fanu's 'Carmilla' that remains his best-known Gothic tale. The story of a female vampire's advances towards a young girl greatly influenced Bram Stoker's 'Dracula' (1897) as well as twentieth century films.
