The Stoneground Ghost Tales: Compiled from the Recollections of the Reverend Roland Batchel, the Vicar of the Parish

Though a cleric by trade, E. G. Swain achieved his greatest acclaim via the publication of this chilling collection of ghost stories. Featuring a heavily autobiographical narrator, the eccentric but kindly Reverend Batchel, all nine tales are set in a parish in the gloomy marshes of England's eastern Fenlands.
