Unholy Relics by M P Dare
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 190 KB
Overview: Marcus Paul Dare (1902 - 1962) was an antiquarian, writer, and genuine student of the occult.
“Unholy Relics and Other Uncanny Tales”, M P Dare's last published work and his only collection of ghost stories, was first published by Edward Arnold & Co in 1947. “These tales are fiction - and yet not fiction,” he wrote in his introduction to the slim volume of thirteen stories.
“They are all founded upon actual experiences of the author in the realms of the uncanny. The antiquary, perhaps because he is in close touch with the human thought of all time, that is not dead, but sometime sleepeth, comes more into contact with that dim borderline region than most people.”
Each tale details the doings of Gregory Wayne and his lifelong friend Alan Granville. The two men, we are told, grew up together, both ‘with a burning love for the past’. They live together in an old Leicestershire Wolds manor-house, which they purchased together and restored. Their domestic staff consists of two ex-army batmen, James and John, and their “monastic peace is undisturbed by the meddlesome hand of womankind”.
Dare is widely considered to be one of “The James Gang” - those authors whose own fiction is strongly influenced by the ghost stories of M R James.
Genre: Fiction > Sci-Fi/Fantasy Horror
