Strange Stories

About this book

This aptly titled collection of early weird fiction from the masters of the macabre Émile Erckmann and Alexandre Chatrian (jointly penning tales under the Erckmann-Chatrian name) includes a bevy of strange incidents and fantastical occurrences to unsettle and delight. Experiences stories praised by and served as influence on the likes of ghost story maestro M. R. James and the demented king of the eldritch horror himself H. P. Lovecraft. - Summary by Ben Tucker
