Witching Hill

by E. W. Hornung

"Witching Hill" by E. W. Hornung is a collection of short stories first serialized in 1912 and published in 1913. The eight tales follow estate clerk Gillon and resident Delavoye as they investigate strange occurrences plaguing the Witching Hill housing estate. From mysterious tunnels to unexplained behavioral changes among respectable neighbors, the pair confronts seemingly supernatural events that Delavoye attributes to his wicked ancestor's curse—while the skeptical Gillon searches for rational explanations in this atmospheric mystery series.
