Dreamland and Ghostland : 



An Original Collection of Tales and Warnings 

 from the Borderland of Substance and Shadow. 



EMBRACING REMARKABLE DREAMS, PRESENTIMENTS, AND COIN- 

 CIDENCES, RECORDS OF SINGULAR PERSONAL EXPERIENCE 

 BY VARIOUS WRITERS, STARTLING STORIES FROM INDIVIDUAL 

 AND FAMILY HISTORY, MYSTERIOUS HINTS FROM THE LIPS 

 OF LIVING NARRATORS, AND PSYCHOLOGICAL STUDIES, 

 GRAVE AND GAY. 



" It is a remarkable fact that men and women do like ghost stories. They 

 enjoy being thrilled, and many of them read with avidity tales which deal 

 with things out of the ordinary physical ken. IN THESE THREE VOLUMES 



THEY MAY SUP FULL OF THESE DELIGHTS." Scotsman. 



" There is plenty of amusing reading of this sort to be found in these 

 volumes, both for believers and disbelievers in the supernatural." Court 

 Journal. 



"Volumes which will test the credulity of the reader to the utmost, and 

 the commencement of one of the stories might very well have served for the 

 motto for the whole collection : ' It is almost useless to tell you the story, 

 because I know you will not believe it. ' We do not say for a moment that 

 we disbelieve all the stories told here." Court Circular. 



"The psychological student would be wise to exercise a certain amount of 

 caution. The general reader who likes ghost-stories and dream-stories for 

 their own sake, in the straightforward old fashion, will find plenty of enter- 

 tainment in these three volumes, and, thanks to the variety of sources from 

 which the contents are drawn, no sort of monotony." Graphic. 



"The great novelty of the work is that the author has so arranged and 

 trimmed the chain of narratives as to make them read like a three volume 

 novel. ... In truth, it is a novel in which the characters tell their own 

 stories in their own way, and in their own language." Christian Union. 



" SHOULD BE SPECIALLY RELISHED THESE WINTER NIGHTS." The World. 



" Stories of the weird and eerie complexion which so many like to cultivate 

 of a winter's night." Globe. 



" There is nothing that is in any way unhealthy in character. Those, 

 therefore, who have a taste for the mysterious and the curious will find in 

 ' Dreamland and Ghostland ' A REAL TREAT. The narratives are at once 

 both grave and gay, with touches of strangeness as to miraculous incidents 

 and supernatural occurrences. But from first to last there is a rationalism as 

 well as a piquancy in the records that make them instructive reading. Indeed, 

 we believe that THERE is NOT A BETTER WORK OF ITS KIND, so varied, so 

 enchanting, and so well edited ; or one that may be read with such profit." 

 Christian Union.
