Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu (1814–1873) was an Irish writer, revered as a master of Gothic horror and a significant figure in English literature during the 19th century. Born on August 28, 1814, to a literary family in Dublin, Le Fanu grew up surrounded by historical tales and Gothic traditions that heavily influenced his literary style. Educated at Trinity College, he embraced a career in journalism prior to establishing himself as a novelist and short story writer. Le Fanu's works often incorporate elements of the supernatural, mystery, and psychological terror, reflecting his fascination with the uncanny and his deep understanding of human fears and superstitions. 'THE SCREAM - 60 Horror Tales in One Edition' is a testament to his enduring legacy, showcasing a diverse range of his short stories. Known for his intricate plotting and atmospheric writing, Le Fanu also authored seminal Gothic works including 'Carmilla' (1872), an early vampire tale predating Bram Stoker's 'Dracula', and 'Uncle Silas' (1864), a foundational text in the locked-room mystery subgenre. Le Fanu's writings are characterized by their chilling narratives, set in a world where the line between reality and the supernatural blurs. His contributions to literature forged a path for future writers in the horror and mystery genres, marking him as a pioneer whose stories continue to haunt and captivate readers to this day.
