The Ghost of Down Hill (Fantasy and Horror Classics)

From the mind of Edgar Wallace, the legendary English author known as the master of the classic thriller and fast-paced crime fiction, comes a mystery where the supernatural clashes with cold-blooded logic.

The Ghost of Down Hill centers on a seemingly tranquil location that is plagued by a strange, unsettling presence. Whispers and unexplained occurrences have made the area notorious, driving away the curious and protecting a sinister secret. A sharp investigator must penetrate the supernatural facade to uncover the clever criminal scheme, be it smuggling, fraud, or even murder, that is haunting Down Hill.

This short story is a thrilling example of Wallace's masterful ability to blend elements of a traditional ghost story setup with the rapid plotting and unexpected twists of classic detective fiction. It is essential reading for fans of early thrillers and clever, dramatic mysteries.
