macabre. In addition to the world-famous title novel, about a 'ghost' who
terrorizes the personnel of the Paris Opera House, the book includes Horace

craze, as well as stories by H. P. Lovecraft, Edgar Allan Poe, Mary Shelley,
Arthur Machen, Louisa May Alcott, E.T.A. Hoffmann, J. Sheridan Le Fanu and
Vernon Lee. This book features an exquisitely designed bonded-leather binding,

collectible, the books in this series offer hours of pleasure to readers young
and old and are an indispensable cornerstone for every home library.
