Three Ghost Stories by Charles Dickens
"Three Ghost Stories" by Charles Dickens is a collection of ghost stories published in 1866. The collection includes "The Trial for Murder," where a murdered victim's ghost haunts a jury foreman to ensure justice; "The Haunted House"; and "The Signal-Man." These supernatural tales explore themes of ambiguity, terror through obscurity, and critique of Victorian society. Dickens masterfully creates uncertainty about whether the paranormal events are real or imagined, leaving readers to question
the reliability of his narrators and the nature of the spectral encounters they describe. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
