`the best studying…for the hours after midnight’
Thus Henry James described the model of supernatural story of which Sheridan Le Fanu was a grasp. Identified in nineteenth-century Dublin as `The Invisible Prince’ due to his reclusive and nocturnal habits, Le Fanu was fascinated by the occult. His writings draw on the Gothic custom, parts of Irish folklore, and even on the social and political anxieties of his Anglo-Irish contemporaries. In exploring typically inexplicable terrors, the tales deal with the unease of the haunted males and
ladies who encounter the supernatural, fairly than on the origin or goal of the visitant. This makes for spine-chilling studying.
The 5 tales introduced right here have been collected by Dr Hesselius, a `metaphysical’ physician, the forerunner of the fashionable psychiatrist, who’s keen to contemplate the ghosts each as actual and as hallucinatory obsessions. The reader’s uncertain anxiousness mimics that of the protagonist, and every story thus creates that environment of thriller which is the supernatural expertise.
