Writers never really die; their stories live on, to be found again, to be told again, to scare again.


In Victorian London, a select group of writers, led by Arthur Conan Doyle, Bram Stoker and Henry James held an informal dining club, the price of entry to which was the telling of a story by each invited guest.
These are their stories, containing tales of revenant loved ones, lost cities, weird science, spectral appearances and mysteries in the fog of the old city, all told by some of the foremost writers of the day. In here you'll find Verne and Wells, Tolstoy and Checkov, Stevenson and Oliphant, Kipling, Twain, Haggard and Blavatsky alongside their hosts.
Come, join us for dinner and a story:

Robert Louis Stevenson - Wee Davie Makes a Friend

Rudyard Kipling - The High Bungalow

Leo Tolstoy - The Immortal Memory

Bram Stoker - The House of the Dead

Mark Twain - Once a Jackass

Herbert George Wells - Farside

Margaret Oliphant - To the Manor Born

Oscar Wilde - The Angry Ghost

Henry Rider Haggard - The Black Ziggurat

Helena P Blavatsky - Born of Ether

Henry James - The Scrimshaw Set

Anton Checkov - At the Molenzki Junction

Jules Verne - To the Moon and Beyond

Arthur Conan Doyle - The Curious Affair on the Embankment
