„Wer ihn sah in seinem Studierzimmer - halb Bibliothek, halb Laboratorium - er war ein weltberühmter Gelehrter und Chemiker und täglich hingen Hunderte an seinen Lippen - wer ihn dort sah in einsamer Winternacht - unbeweglich - umgeben von seinen Giften und seinen Instrumenten und Büchern, wenn der Schatten seiner Schirmlampe wie ein riesiger Käfer an der Wand hockte und der flackernde Schein des Feuers gespenstische Gestalten malte auf die Wandlungen der fremdartigen, seltsam aussehenden Phiolen, der fühlte, der Mann ist behext und das Zimmer dazu.”

Before he started writing novels, Charles Dickens tried his hand at theater. The Village Coquettes is a two act musical.

Our Mutual Friend, the last novel completed by Charles Dickens, has many plots, twists and turns, from the murky river Thames to the gold and crystal on the tables of ‘Society’. A tale of murder, treachery, jealousy and love, takes us first to a rowing boat on the Thames, where the Hexhams have found a body in the water and are bringing it to shore. We attend the Boffins, a poor naïve couple, who unexpectedly have just become wealthy, after their employer dies and names them in his will.

„Toby Veck war nämlich Dienstmann und wartete dort auf seine Aufträge. Im Winter zu warten war‘s freilich eine windige Stelle, wo man die Gänsehaut bekam, rote Augen und blaue Nasen und sich Zähneklappern und erfrorene Zehen holen konnte. Toby Veck wusste davon ein Lied zu singen. Der Wind blies pfeifend um die Ecke, besonders der Ost. Als wenn er von den äußersten Grenzen der Erde daherkäme, um Toby anzublasen. Und manchmal schien er ihn früher angetroffen zu haben, als er vermutete, denn wenn er um die Ecke kam und an Toby vorüberfuhr, kehrte er plötzlich wieder um, als wollte er sagen, aha, da ist er ja schon.

Three Ghost Stories is just that: a collection of three different stories that are true Gothic classics. The three stories, The Signal Man, The Haunted House and The Trial for Murder were sensational for their time and continue to hold up well, thanks to Charles Dickens' superb skills at storytelling. The Signal Man is the most well known of the three, chronicling the haunting of a railroad signal man who is visited by a ghost just before a tragic event is to happen on the railway. If you like Dickens and tales of spectres and the supernatural, you'll love Three Ghost Stories.

The railway signal-man of the title tells the narrator of an apparition that has been haunting him. Each spectral appearance precedes a tragic event on the railway on which the signalman works. The signalman's work is at a signal-box in a deep cutting near a tunnel entrance on a lonely stretch of the railway line, and he controls the movements of passing trains. When there is danger, his fellow signalmen alert him by telegraph and alarms. Three times, he receives phantom warnings of danger when his bell rings in a fashion that only he can hear.
