From Out Of The Silence

This atmospheric collection of supernatural stories by Lady Bessie Kyffin-Taylor was published in 1920. The First World War is an ever-present spectre – with perhaps the most shockingly horrific tale ‘Outside the House’ involving an invalided army officer. Very little seems to be known about the author, apart from the fact that she wrote this collection and another (non-supernatural) volume called Rosemary (A duologue) (1918). E.F. Bleiler compared her supernatural fiction to that of E.F. Benson. Scanning & conversion curtesy of Dewi Evans of Gothic Texts blog.
