Michael Sims
Ghost stories date back centuries, but those written in the Victorian era have a unique atmosphere and dark beauty. Michael Sims, whose previous Victorian collections Dracula’s Guest (vampires) and The Dead Witness (detectives) have been widely praised, has gathered twelve of the best stories about humanity’s oldest supernatural obsession. The Phantom Coach includes tales by a surprising, often legendary cast, from Charles Dickens and Margaret Oliphant to Henry James, Rudyard Kipling, and Arthur Conan Doyle, as well as well as lost gems by forgotten masters such as Mary E. Wilkins Freeman and W.F. Harvey. Amelia Edwards’ chilling story gives the collection its title, while Ambrose Bierce (“The Moonlit Road”), Elizabeth Gaskell, (“The Old Nurse’s Story”) and W. W. Jacobs (“The Monkey’s Paw”) will turn you white as a sheet. With a skillful introduction to the genre and notes on each story by Michael Sims, The Phantom Coach is a spectacular collection of ghostly Victorian thrills.©2014 Michael Sims (P)2026 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

批評家のレビュー
A collection of delightfully creepy ghost stories that were once popular in Victorian periodicals...a great for literature fans who enjoy lesser-known stories by famous novelists.
A fine follow-up to Sims’s acclaimed Dracula’s Ghost and a necessary addition for lovers of all things Victorian, especially of the creepy variety
Just in time for All Hallow’s Eve, Sims has released The Phantom Coach, a collection of classic Victorian ghost stories published by Bloomsbury in a softcover edition. The book includes creepy tales from Charles Dickens, Arthur Conan Doyle, Henry James, Rudyard Kipling, and Ambrose Bierce, among others.
Combined into one volume, these 12 stories give readers an excellent entry point into the spooky literature of the Victorian era--a time marked by a fascination with death and dying.
Barzun considered the ghost story “more artful — and more productive of shivers — than the straight tale of horror,” an assertion that is abundantly substantiated by Michael Sims’s delightful anthology of Victorian ghost stories.
A little advice: hold on to your seat; phantom coach or not, it's going to be a bumpy, spine-tingling, thoroughly enjoyable ride.
Michael Sims has compiled a book sure to send a shiver down the spine of even the most skeptical reader...Sims's eloquent introduction provides the perfect backdrop for the stories that follow, describing the rise of periodical literature, which favored short fiction, and the influence of the most famous writer of his day.
PRAISE FOR DRACULA'S GUEST
Sims, editor of this brilliant collection, gathers stories of the undead written during what he loosely terms the Victorian era.... the bloodsuckers presented here are predators who can be turned away only by Christian symbols, garlic, and little else. Do not expect sparkling Twilight vampires or even the good-guy types that sometimes appeared in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer franchise. An excellent addition to popular fiction and literature collections.
Dracula's Guest invokes the dangerous shadows of Victorian culture, those dark places where passion, terror, pathos, and sorrow mingle and merge. Gathering together canonical works along with less familiar knock-out masterpieces, Michael Sims has produced an anthology designed to keep us all up at night.
