Richard Middleton 
The Ghost Ship 

“The Ghost Ship” is a 1912 short story by English author Richard B. Middleton. A chilling ghost story with unforgettable characters and a masterful narrative, this classic example of vintage supernatural fictional is sure to leave any lover of ghost stories and horror fiction with an almost unquenchable thirst for more of Middleton’s marvellous and macabre work. Richard Barham Middleton (1882 – 1911) was an English author and poet most famous for his short ghost stories. Other notable works by this author include: “Poems and Songs” (1912), “The Pantomime Man” (1933), and “The Day Before Yesterday” (1912). Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
