The Best Psychic Stories
Edited with a Preface by Joseph Lewis French
With an introduction by Dorothy Scarborough
Narrated by Amy Soakes, John Burlinson and Martin Gooding
Today Joseph Lewis French (1858 – 1936) and Dorothy Scarborough (1878 – 1935) are best known as anthologists, with a particular interest in literature dealing with the supernatural.
This collection contains a mixture of stories about ghosts and contacts from spirits, some by celebrated authors, together with essays on psychical research.
As Joseph French notes in the preface, even for the skeptic, tales of ghostly activity retain a distinct fascination, and the widespread interest in psychic phenomena in the Early Twentieth Century proved to be a significant stimulus to literary production.

2) The Return by Algernon Blackwood

5) Ligeia by Edgar Allan Poe
