Эдвард Фредерик Бенсон, интеллектуал и историк британской монархии, автор десятков «страшных рассказов» и любимец мэтров хоррора, по-прежнему остается писателем, недооцененным потомками. А между тем в своих произведениях он часто рассказывал об ужасах, имевших место в его собственной семье… К чему готовиться, если постоянно слышишь жужжание мух? Что может скрываться в отражении хрустального шара?
Как действовать, если оживает твой автопортрет? Вот лишь некоторые темы рассказов Э. Ф. Бенсона…

"The Sanctuary", a story of Satanism. «There was a thump on the ceiling overhead as if someone had fallen, and without a word we ran upstairs into Francis's bedroom. The door of the wardrobe where the vestments were kept was open, some lay on the floor. The panel was open, too, but within it was dark. In terror at what might meet our eyes, I felt for the switch and turned the light on…»

The Thing in the Hall, is a rather macabre and strange story – retold by Mike Vendetti – of two friends living in London, one of whom tempts fate by inviting a spirit to visit without limiting what type of spirit he is inviting. As we know, there are «evil» spirits just awaiting a home or a victim.

At the Farmhouse

Mrs. Amworth by E. F. Benson, The village of Maxley, where, last summer and autumn, these strange events took place, lies on a heathery and pine-clad upland of Sussex. In all England you could not find a sweeter and saner situation. Should the wind blow from the south, it comes laden with the spices of the sea; to the east high downs protect it from the inclemencies of March; and from the west and north the breezes which reach it travel over miles of aromatic forest and heather…

Mrs. Amworth

"Naboth's Vineyard" exemplifies E. F. Benson's fine literary style and his ability to create the most frightening of supernatural and macabre tales.
This story takes it title from a story in the Old Testament Book of Kings starring Ahab and his infamous wife Jezebel. Ahab wants Naboth’s vineyard and Naboth refuses to sell. The update is not about a vineyard, but a home. The Ahab here is a wily lawyer named Ralph and a client whom he failed to protect from charges of embezzlement. Ralph desperately wants the house and uses his knowledge of the other man to press the matter; a circumstance which almost immediately results in the other man’s death by heart attack. The second half of the story is the delivery of a little Old Testament-style ironic retributive justice from the afterlife proving that revenge really is a dish best served when your corpse is cold.
