Mournful cries in an ice-bound sea, a potion that allows the user to commune , an Egyptian priest who cannot die, and a mesmerist of unrivaled power. Brace yourself for these and other chilling encounters in The Parasite and Other Tales. Even before he created Sherlock Holmes, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle terrified and delighted readers with tales of suspense, haunted by mysterious forces that defy rational explanation. These stories capture the unique draw of the uncanny and the curiosity that compels us all to ask, "Could it be true?"

Presented by the Horror Writers Association, and introduced by award-winning author Daniel Stashower, this collection illuminates Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's talent for the macabre and the supernatural. The Parasite and the other stories in this collection showcase Conan Doyle at his most inventive, sure to entertain both new readers and his most dedicated fans.

作者简介

阿瑟·柯南·道尔爵士于 1859 年出生于爱丁堡，1930 年逝世。在那些年里，他从事了各种各样的活动和创作，使他成为国际知名人物，并启发法国人给他起了个绰号叫“好巨人”。他是艺术家“迪基·道尔”的侄子，在斯托尼赫斯特接受教育，后来在爱丁堡大学学习医学，在那里，一位教授的诊断方法为夏洛克·福尔摩斯使用的推理方法提供了灵感。

他大成就当然是创造了夏洛克·福尔摩斯，这个人物很快就获得了国际地位，并不断分散他其他工作的注意力；柯南·道尔曾一度杀死了他，但由于公众抗议，不得不将他复活。在创造华生医生时，福尔摩斯的冒险伙伴和记录者，柯南·道尔不仅为福尔摩斯创造了一个理想的陪衬，而且成为了小说中知名的叙述者之一。

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was born in Edinburgh in 1859 and died in 1930. Within those years was crowded a variety of activity and creative work that made him an international figure and inspired the French to give him the epithet 'the good giant'. He was the nephew of 'Dickie Doyle' the artist, and was educated at Stonyhurst, and later studied medicine at Edinburgh University, where the methods of diagnosis of one of the professors provided the idea for the methods of deduction used by Sherlock Holmes.

His greatest achievement was, of course, his creation of Sherlock Holmes, who soon attained international status and constantly distracted him from his other work; at one time Conan Doyle killed him but was obliged by public protest to restore him to life. And in his creation of Dr Watson, Holmes's companion in adventure and chronicler, Conan Doyle produced not only a perfect foil for Holmes but also one of the most famous narrators in fiction.
