Madam Crowl's Ghost and the Dead Sexton : A Dying Confession, an Old Woman's Ghost, and a Sexton's Guilty Secret
A servant girl's account of her mistress's final days becomes something far stranger once the old woman herself refuses to stay buried, while, in a linked tale, a churchyard sexton learns that some crimes leave a debt that outlives the grave entirely.
Two of Sheridan Le Fanu's most chilling shorter pieces paired together — one a deathbed haunting, the other a quiet, merciless reckoning. Both share his gift for making ordinary rural settings feel like the thinnest possible barrier between the living and whatever refuses to stay dead.
