  Lettice Galbraith is yet another of those mysterious women of British literature of whom little was recorded. 
   
  Lizzie Susan Gibson was born on the 27th January 1859 in Kingston-Upon-Hull in Yorkshire into a comfortable middle-class family. 
   
  Her education was primarily private but at fifteen her father died, and life became rather different. 
   
  After several years in London, she moved with her mother to Reigate in Surrey.   
   
  In 1885 she published her first story anonymously and her pseudonym ‘Lettice Galbraith’ only appeared from late 1892. 
   
  Although her canon of works is small, she mainly achieved her reputation on a single volume of ghost and supernatural stories entitled ‘New Ghost Stories’. 
   
  After her mother’s death in 1901 she moved to London and continued to write, this time moving on from the short story to the novel, as well as reverting to her given name. 
   
  For the last two decades of her life, she did not continue her literary career. 
   
  Lettice Galbraith died on 8th July 1932 at Downe, then in Kent.  She was 73

After losing his wife and kids in a car accident, the former MLB pitcher-turned-chef purchases a lovely new home at a steal, while shrugging off its terrible history of a murder-suicide.

  Skeptical about the supernatural despite finding multiple cryptic messages, Jackson visits the local library to research clues tied to the property. When the charming librarian helps him unearth chilling details of its past, he's more determined than ever to unravel the truth. 
  Can Jackson expose the horror hidden within the haunted halls and find his own peace? 
  An engaging supernatural mystery novel about family secrets, the price of vengeance, and learning to move on after loss. -- Clarion Reviews 
  Eerie, surprising, and profoundly emotional, The House on Tyner by Matthew O'Connell is a beautifully written ghost story with the structure of a mystery. A powerfully written ghost story that manages to be appealingly realistic, while also questioning the boundaries of the tangible world. Giving a poetic side to the enigmatic and haunted, the novel is unique in the paranormal genre. ★★★★½ -- Self-Publishing Review 
  5 out of 5 stars. I found nothing to dislike about this novel. I thoroughly enjoyed this mystery novel. My eyes were glued to the pages by the end of the book. The author included many plot twists and turns to keep readers engaged throughout the novel. As someone who often shies away from ghost stories due to cheesiness, I wholeheartedly recommend this book, as it is a decidedly realistic portrayal of the paranormal. -- OnlineBookClub

After learning these secrets, the squire killed the Native Americans by giving them "monstrous bad rum"; within a week all of them were dead, and he alone had the secret knowledge. The man shows the narrator visions of the city's past and future so terrifying that the narrator begins to scream wildly. The screams rouse the spirits of the Native Americans to take vengeance on the man, who is the same squire from 1768.
