Sabine Baring-Gould's vampire story is a lost classic of the genre. Whilst bellringing in Dartmoor's Brentor church on Christmas Eve, the heir of the Rosedhu family encounters an undead woman who has been condemned to eternal life without eternal youth. The other five stories are not supernatural, but are further proof of Baring-Gould's skills as a forgotten master of Victorian fiction, with a talent for capturing the relationship between the British rural landscape and the people who inhabit it.
