Ghost Stories of an Antiquary, Vol. 1
Ghost Stories of an Antiquary, Vol. 1 | M R James
5 posts | 4 read | 5 to read
Curl up by the fire and enter the sinister, supernatural world of Montague Rhodes James (1862 1936), the master of the English ghost story. Chillingly atmospheric, quietly terrifying, M. R. James s stories explore the darkness just beyond the flicker of the candle, behind the creaking door. "Ghost Stories of an Antiquary, Vol. 1" comprises graphic adaptations of four of James s most compelling and unsettling stories, plunging readers into a world of pervasive, creeping disquiet a world populated by vengeful phantoms, disturbing visions, and spectral works of art. Published on the 80th anniversary of James s death, this is a graphic novel to be read on a winter s night, a book to curl up with but not a book for the fainthearted. The four stories are "Canon Alberic's Scrap-book, Lost Hearts, The Mezzotint, "and "The Ash Tree." "

A Bit Of Madness - Great graphics along with an okay fantasy story.
Incarnate - Good graphics, a bunch of revenants think they're immortal and a group of humans disagree.
Ghost Stories of An Antiquary - Nice graphics for each of the four ghost stories and the stories are pretty good.

I almost gave up after the first (confusing) story. I'm glad I didn't. Being the ignorant boob that I am, I had never heard of M. R. James. I want to read the complete stories now.
