Book Description
The stories are powerful, but he always manages to punch holes in the ghost story before the story ends. His sister was a trance medium who was once involved in a complex three-cornered correspondence--that means that three different mediums, who theoretically do not know one another and have no interaction, each receive part of the message, which must then be assembled by the researchers. He wanted to believe in survival after death, especially after the death of his favorite daughter followed years later by the World War I death of his only son, eighteen years old and as blind as Kipling without his glasses. But when he wrote this book, these tragedies had not yet occurred, and most of the stories end happily. Some, though, do not. Go and read the book. You'll be glad you did.

From ghost stories to psychological suspense, the complete horror and dark fantasy stories of Rudyard Kipling. Rudyard Kipling, a major figure of English literature, used the full power and intensity of his imagination and his writing ability in his excursions into fantasy. Kipling is considered one of England's greatest writers, but was born in Bombay. He was educated in England, but returned to India in 1882, where he began writing fantasy and supernatural stories set in his native continent: "The Phantom Rickshaw," "The Strange Ride of Morrowbie Jukes," and his most famous horror story, "The Mark of the Beast" (1890). This masterwork collection, edited by Stephen Jones (Britain's most accomplished and acclaimed anthologist) for the first time collects all of Kipling's fantastic fiction, ranging from traditional ghostly tales to psychological horror.
