To Be Read at Dusk: Five couriers talking amongst themselves outside a convent on the summit of the Great St Bernard Pass are overheard by the narrator, as two of their group's members relate short ghost stories. The first story is of a young woman who disappears, apparently taken from her newly-wed husband by a mysterious man who had previously appeared in her nightmares; the second is of a man who sees an apparition of his brother, and is thereby warned of the latter's death. Three Ghost Stories: \"The Signal-Man\": This story is about a railway signal-man who receives a series of ghostly premonitions, which he believes are warnings of impending disaster. The story explores themes of loneliness, isolation, and mental breakdown. \"The Haunted House\": This is a multi-part story about a group of people who spend a night in a haunted house, hoping to solve the mystery of its ghostly apparitions. The story is notable for its complex structure, with each section being written by a different author, including Dickens himself. \"The Trial for Murder\": This is a courtroom drama about a man who is haunted by the ghost of a woman he murdered. The story is notable for its vivid depiction of the trial and the intense psychological pressure experienced by the accused.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GENRES BSTIN Literature \u0026 Fiction","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":62421120713074,"sku":"9362055813 - PB","price":6.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":62421120745842,"sku":"9362055813 - HB","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/6889\/0482\/files\/716EA6j2ZcL.jpg?v=1790673878","url":"https:\/\/universalreads.com\/products\/to-be-read-at-dusk-three-ghost-stories-deluxe-harcover-edition","provider":"Universal reads","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
