Carmilla - Paperback

by J. Sheridan Lefanu (Author)

Joseph Thomas Sheridan Le Fanu (1814 -1873) was an Irish writer of Gothic tales and mystery novels. He was the premier ghost story writer of the nineteenth century. In his stories the supernatural explanation is implied, but there is always a remote but possible natural explanation. Carmilla is the story of a vampire, illustrating the victory of superstition over logic.
