What if a piece of fabric carried the imprint of a ghost? The Diary of Mr. Poynter is one of M.R. James' most understated yet psychologically disturbing stories. When an antiquarian named James Denton discovers an old diary, he becomes fascinated with a cryptic entry referencing a curtain pattern. But as this pattern is recreated in his home, strange events unfold-whispers in the night, sensations of being watched, and the appearance of an unseen presence connected to the long-dead diarist. This modern translation presents the story in fresh, accessible language while preserving James' masterful tension and quiet terror. A meditation on the dangers of curiosity and the haunting of aesthetics, this tale remains an unforgettable entry in the ghost story tradition. What You'll Discover in This Modern Translation: * A Chilling Classic of English Ghost Fiction - A pattern that carries more than just decorative charm. * The Eerie Genius of M.R. James - Atmospheric buildup, suggestive horror, and ghostly restraint. * A Modern, Reader-Friendly Edition - Faithfully adapted for contemporary audiences without losing its original impact. * A Story About Objects That Remember - Explore the mystery of inherited hauntings and visual curses. Perfect for readers of psychological horror and supernatural fiction, The Diary of Mr. Poynter is a tale that proves some designs are better left forgotten.
