Excerpt from The Haunted and the Haunters, or the House and the Brain The story which follows has al ways seemed to me absolutely unique. At the present day the occult is becoming almost the fashion in fiction, and many hundreds of stories have appeared in which a prominent part is played by hypno tism, by magic of various sorts and even by direct apparitions. It has come in my way to read very many of such things, yet I can think of none so gruesome - none so thor oughly calculated to make your esh creep, as the fat boy re marked in Pickwick - as this which was written more than half a cen tury ago, when the spirit of the times was so utterly different. I am surprised to hear that it has not hitherto been published in full in America. The shortened form which is more commonly seen appears to have been a later recension by theauthor, who thought that the latter part of his tale bore too close a re semblance to the plot which he later worked up more fully in A Strange Way. Here, however, we have it in its original and unabridged form, and I think that all readers will agree that the part which was later omitted adds greatly to the interest of the story.
