Water Ghost And Others

Water Ghost and Others

by John Kendrick Bangs

John Kendrick Bangs's "Water Ghost and Others" is a collection of eight short stories exploring the supernatural with a delightful blend of humor and macabre. Bangs, a master of wit and wordplay, crafts tales of ghosts, haunted houses, and unexpected encounters with the unseen. The stories, written in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, capture the era's fascination with the paranormal, presented with a charmingly satirical edge that makes them both entertaining and thought-provoking.
