The Haunted Hotel

By Wilkie Collins & Tim Zengerink
The Haunted Hotel by Wilkie Collins & Tim Zengerink digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

What if the walls of a hotel could remember every crime ever committed within them?

In The Haunted Hotel, Wilkie Collins-the celebrated author of The Woman in White-spins a masterfully plotted tale that begins with a broken engagement and ends with a death surrounded by whispers of the paranormal. A young nobleman suddenly dies under mysterious circumstances shortly after his hasty marriage. His widow-cold, enigmatic, and possibly cursed-takes up residence in a luxurious hotel in Venice, where guests begin to report strange noises, unexplainable chills, and terrifying visions.

When a skeptical Englishwoman investigates, what unfolds is a story of betrayal, murder, spiritual unrest, and a haunting that reaches from beyond the grave to deliver justice. This modern translation keeps all the thrilling twists and atmosphere of the original, while ensuring a seamless reading experience for the contemporary reader.

What You'll Discover in This Modern Translation:

  • A Gothic Tale of Love, Death, and Spectral Justice - Set in one of the world's most hauntingly beautiful cities.
  • The Psychological Genius of Wilkie Collins - A tale where rational minds confront the inexplicable.
  • A Modern, Accessible Adaptation - Cleanly translated for fluid reading without losing the tension of the original text.
  • An Elegant Fusion of Mystery and the Supernatural - A chilling narrative where the ghost is as real as the guilt.

Whether you're drawn to Victorian mysteries, atmospheric horror, or tales of justice from beyond the grave, The Haunted Hotel will leave you spellbound.
