Ghost Stories of an Antiquary

A 1904 collection of eight supernatural short stories by M. R. James, many first read to friends at Christmas at King's College, Cambridge. Tales such as "Canon Alberic's Scrap-book" follow antiquarians and scholars whose research into old books, relics, and ruins stirs up unsettling forces.
