  Top 10 Short Stories The -...

  Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author’s brain, their soul and heart.  A few pages can lift our lives into locations, people and experiences with a sweep of landscape, narration, feelings and emotions that is difficult to achieve elsewhere. 
   
  In this series we try to offer up tried and trusted ‘Top Tens’ across many different themes and authors. But any anthology will immediately throw up the questions – Why that story? Why that author?  
   
  The theme itself will form the boundaries for our stories which range from well-known classics, newly told, to stories that modern times have overlooked but perfectly exemplify the theme.  Throughout the volume our authors whether of instant recognition or new to you are all leviathans of literature. 
   
  Some you may disagree with but they will get you thinking; about our choices and about those you would have made.  If this volume takes you on a path to discover more of these miniature masterpieces then we have all gained something. 
   
  In this volume stories from the Masters of Horror take centre stage.  Within the words from the pens of Vernon Lee, Edith Wharton, Margaret Oliphant, Mary Butts and others lurk dark intentions of evil.   As each story draws you in, so it is that uneasy, unsettling feelings begin to creep into our heads.  It’s only a matter of time before things go decidedly from bad to much, much worse.

  Carmilla

  Joseph Sheridan La Fanu

  The moonlight spills like silver across ancient walls, and somewhere in the velvet darkness, a whisper stirs—a name, half-sighed, half-forgotten. Carmilla. A name as soft as a caress, as chilling as a shadow at the edge of the candle's glow. She does not knock at your door; she drifts through it like a dream. She is beauty wrapped in mystery, desire woven with dread.
  This is not a story of fangs bared in the night, nor of crude terrors lurking in the crypt. Carmilla is subtler, more intoxicating—a tale that shivers on the border between love and death, fascination and fear. It is the pulse quickened without reason, the gaze held too long, the hush of silken footsteps on cold stone.
  Long before Dracula cast his shadow over the genre, Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu shaped the vampire legend with an elegance both haunting and hypnotic. He understood that true horror does not always come in the shape of monsters but in the slow unraveling of certainty, the delicate trespass of the unknown into the familiar.
  To read Carmilla is to step into a dream—one of moonlit corridors and stolen glances, of fevered devotion and something else, something nameless and ancient, curling at the edges of the night. But beware: dreams have a way of lingering, and shadows… shadows are never empty.
