The Dead and the Countess
The Dead and the Countess: A Ghost Story for Christmas | Gertrude Atherton
1 post | 3 read
World-renowned cartoonist Seth returns with three new ghost stories for 2022. The dead sleep peacefully--until a railway is built near their cemetery. While the old priest works nightly to keep them at rest, the count's dying young wife begs to be buried near the railway. But when her last wish is granted, the priest finds that the sound of the train leaves the countess far from at peace.

Another one from the Ghost Story Collection. I quite enjoyed this particular story, centred on the belief that the dead can be disturbed in their sleep through a modern railway. A fun, quick read!
