What if love, regret, and death were only separated by a veil of fog? In The Bell in the Fog, American gothic master Gertrude Atherton delivers a chilling and poignant collection of supernatural short stories that explore the spiritual and emotional dimensions of death, the persistence of memory, and the ethereal power of love from beyond the grave. Each tale in this beautifully modernized collection delves into the unknown, inviting readers into haunted houses, tragic pasts, and timeless romances that refuse to fade-even after death. Originally published in the early 20th century, Atherton's stories combine subtle psychological horror with elegant prose and deeply human emotion. This modern translation preserves the atmospheric dread and lyrical style while making her timeless themes accessible to the contemporary reader. What You'll Discover in This Modern Translation: * The Bell in the Fog - A ghostly mansion hides a tragic past, and a mysterious bell tolls for the secrets that won't stay buried * The Striding Place - A man's friend vanishes in the English countryside, and the truth he uncovers is more horrifying than he could imagine * The Dead and the Countess - On the cliffs of Brittany, the dead cry out for peace while a countess defies the finality of death * Death and the Woman - A tale of terminal illness and spectral comfort, where death may not be the end of love * The Greatest Good of the Greatest Number - A story of sacrifice, silence, and spiritual reckoning * The Tragedy of a Snob - When pride meets its supernatural punishment * The Tragedy of a Wife - A ghostly presence forces a woman to confront what she has lost-and what she never truly knew These powerful, eerie stories blend romance and the macabre in a way only Atherton could. For lovers of gothic literature, spiritual tales, and ghost stories that explore the human soul, The Bell in the Fog is a forgotten treasure reborn for a new generation.
