Book excerpt: The foremost teller of scary stories in his day and a profound influence on both the novelists and filmmakers of the 20th century, Anglo-Irish author JOSEPH THOMAS SHERIDAN LE FANU (18141873) has, sadly, fallen out of scholarly and popular favor, and unfairly so. To this day, contemporary readers who happen across his works praise his talent for weaving a tense literary atmosphere tinged by the supernatural and bolstered by hints of ambiguous magic. Though his best-known works were horror tales, Le Fanus first novels were historical in nature. The House by the Churchyard, originally published in 1863, bridges the authors early work and his later experiments in Gothic horror, and is said to have inspired James Joyces Finnegans Wake. A rambling tale of the charming Irish town of Chapelizod in 1767, it sees men of the Royal Irish Artillery stationed in the village and disrupting the quiet life there... though the brooding Mr. Mervyn and his coffin and the mysterious newcomer Mr. Dangerfield lend elements of the unknown as well. With a series of new editions of Le Fanus works, Cosimo is proud to reintroduce modern book lovers to the writings of the early master of suspense fiction who pioneered the concept of psychological horror.

Book excerpt: Lord Dunoran, an Irish peer, was executed after being convicted of murdering a man named Beauclerc in London. His estates were declared forfeit to the crown, and his family was left under a shadow. Eighteen years after his death, his son, who assumed the name Mr. Mervyn, takes his father's body back to Ireland and buries it in the family vault in the Anglican church in Chapelizod, a suburb of Dublin. After the burial, Mervyn moves into an old house that is reputed to be haunted; several families moved out of it after having seen strange apparitions and heard noises at night. Mervyn hopes that he might pick up some clues in the neighborhood that will lead him to the true murderer of Beauclerc, for the young man still believes his father innocent of the crime for which he paid with his life.About the same time that young Mervyn takes up residence in the haunted house, another stranger comes to Chapelizod, a man named Paul Dangerfield, who is looking after the affairs of a local nobleman. Dangerfield, a very rich man, soon ingratiates himself with the local people by his apparent good sense and liberality. The villagers are very suspicious of young Mervyn, however, for he keeps to himself and only a few people know his real identity.
