Bird of ill omen : the gothic tales of Catherine Crowe

Crowe, Catherine, 1790-18762026
Books
During the Victorian era, Catherine Crowe became a household name on par with Dickens for her innovative retellings of "true" ghost stories, in which she treated readers to glimpses of the "night side of nature" - until her reputation was tarnished following a public breakdown. Seeking to restore Crowe's place in the canon of strange and ghosty fiction, Ruth Heholt presents some of her best tales of "real" phenomena, alongside her dark Gothic stories.
