Seven tales influenced by the Supernatural. [ Bleiler2 p.118]. "In a brief narrative, or romance, nothing should be wasted, nothing should be superflueous, all should converge rapidly so as to produce the desired effect, or the enhance the interest of the given situation. Hence it is a misfortune that English taste is intolerant of short stories. They are welcomed in a magazine or journal; when collected they are looked on with suspicion." - Introduction.
