Story
Mr. Abney, the owner of Aswarby, a tall, square, red-brick mansion built in the reign of Anne, proved himself to be a very evil man. No one knew more of the religious beliefs of the later pagans than did the owner of Aswarby. He performed hideous experiments on such persons as could conveniently be removed without occasioning a gap in society. The final "victim" - to employ a word repugnant in the highest degree to his feelings - must be his cousin, Stephen Elliott, a 12-year-old orphan.

Story
M.R.James' "Runenbeschwörung" nimmt Elemente von modernen Gothic-Filmen, wie Polanskis "Neun Pforten", vorweg: das irrationale Böse wird durch die "richtige" Anwendung alter Schriften aktiviert und bricht in die heile Welt von wissenschaftlich denkenden und literarisch geschulten Bürgern ein, die nahezu hilflos erleben müssen, wie der Schrecken sie nicht nur im Schlaf verfolgt...

Story
M. R. James was a prolific and hugely successful author, nowc redited with redefining the ghost story form. By abandoning many of the formal gothic clichés of his predecessors and using more contemporary settings, James set the stage for future generations of writers. Originally published in 1904, Oh, Whistle, and I'll Come to You, My Lad is the story of a man who digs up a bronze whistle, which, after blowing it, leads to unexpected consequences.
