Haunted hotel

Wilkie Collins’s “The Haunted Hotel” is a masterful blend of detective fiction and a ghost story. The action unfolds in Venice—a city of dark canals, deserted bridges, and mysterious deaths. An ancient palazzo has been converted into a fashionable hotel, but it continues to harbor its grim secrets, driving its guests mad and forcing them to wonder whether they are instruments of fate or simply insane. The novellas and short stories by Wilkie Collins also included in this collection promise family curses, ghosts, the walking dead, supernatural horror, and suspenseful storytelling.
