Supernatural Short Stories: Charles Dickens

Charles Dickens wrote a number of supernatural and horror stories, some of which were included in his longer works, while others were published in magazines. This collection provides an invaluable insight into the author`s storytelling apprenticeship and his steady growth towards excellence.
As well as offering a further dimension to the world of his better-known masterpieces, these tales - from `The Story of the Goblins Who Stole a Sexton` to the celebrated `The Signalman` - illustrate Dickens`s well-known love of a spooky story told around a blazing fire, the pastime of a bygone age to be rediscovered for our own delight.
