I first read MR James
back when I was devouring
the great horror writers,
and fell in love with woods
and groves and old Victorian houses.
The buried witchcraft dolls
and monsters out of Kings
and Chronicles were somehow balm to me.
Suggestive as they are of more vibrant,
stranger, and better roaming spots than these.

Am due to write a Master’s dissertation on ghost stories and MR James in particular, the planning stage for which starts today. Wish me luck!
