This book was converted from its physical edition to the digital format by a community of volunteers. You may find it for free on the web. Purchase of the Kindle edition includes wireless delivery.Please note that this book is an anthology, mostly consisting of stories published anonymously, and is NOT a collection of stories written by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu. and "Dickon the Devil and " is indeed a story by that author. and "What Was It? and " is a story by Fitz-James O'Brien, and the 1896 New Amsterdam edition cites Sir Charles Young, Bart. AND OTHERS as contributors to the volume. No edition from that published by Tinsley Brothers in 1867 to the present has presented the names of authors beside the titles on the Contents page, and the placement of Le Fanu's name on the front cover and spine on some early editions has led to further confusion. Unscrupulous and or simply careless publishers have publishing this book as a collection of stories by Le Fanu for more than a century.
