The Haunted Hotel and Other Stories by Wilkie Collins contains the 1878 novel The Haunted Hotel and an assortment of rather unconventional ghost stories and uncanny tales. Superb subtle horror from one of the masters.

“Persons and Things do turn up so vexatiously in this life, and will in a manner insist on being noticed. Let us take it easy, and let us take it short; we shall be in the thick of the mystery soon, I promise you!”

“Are you surprised at the knowledge of the law which this way of writing betrays in an ignorant woman? I have been learning, my dear: the Law and the Lady have begun understanding one another.”
