When Teacups, Burning Lumps Of Coal And Eggs Flew Through The Air - New York Times

With the dust of the Great War settling and shadows looming from a new, impending war, Britons were necessarily preoccupied with high strangeness. One investigator made it his mission to investigate such claims and get down to brass tacks. Such is the tale of Nandor Fodor, outlined in Kate Summerscale's he Haunting of Alma Fielding about one man's passion to puzzle out mysteries and have fun in the process. Of course ghost stories go back millennia before Churchill and Roosevelt were glints in their ancestors's eyes, and Nina Zumel provides some Ghost Stories From The Classics for your reading pleasure. Best of all, Ms Zumel points out some trope mainstays which are relevant to contemporary tales and sightings! (CS)
