About this book

Dinner at Carnacki's house ends with a story of an unsettling investigation. Four friends gather to hear how he approached a reported haunting, turning the comfortable conversation into an account of locked doors, disturbed bedclothes and an old room with a troubling history. William Hope Hodgson's collection uses this storytelling frame to bring the investigator's observations and fears directly to his listeners.

Carnacki works with physical precautions as well as unusual protective devices. In the opening case, he stretches sealed ribbons across a room to detect interference. Another excerpt places an electric pentacle around a bed while the sound of a galloping horse circles the house before dawn. These details give the stories a distinctive mixture of practical detection and supernatural danger.
