Description

Lafcadio Hearn's fascinating and unsettling ghost stories are a reinterpretation of oriental legends, and folktales. They are a potent blend of weird beauty and horror. 

Hearn, who referred to his narratives as 'stories and studies of strange things', believed that the spectral world was part of the oriental landscape.
