Not a lot of people have read "What Was It?" by Fitz-James O'brien, and that is such a shame. I stumbled upon it in the anthology "Doorway to Dilemma" and ever since I've read it, it has been lodged into my brain - probably not for the intended reasons, but still. It's probably one of the oddest subversion of a ghost story I've read.

(you can read it here if you don't want to be spoiled)

It starts off with some very typical preamble about the house being haunted, including references to a Mr. A---- who died of heartbreak not inside the house, but his death caused people to think the house was haunted, and the reports of doors moving on their own certainly didn't help.

The narrator and their friend (who live in this building) end up hitting up some opium and the friend talks about some spooky stuff that really upsets the narrator, so they go to sleep high and paranoid... but not for long. Something - no, someone drops from the ceiling right onto his chest! There's nothing there, but the narrator can feel it, and he can feel the bony hands encircle his neck...

And so he grabs the invisible thing and beats the seven bells out of them.

To say I lost it at this point is an understatement. This whole time, the story has been playing all the typical ghost story beats, and then they just beat up the ghost! The roommate even gets in on the action.

And it only gets weirder from there. They both learn the creature is very much very much not a ghost, but rather some unexplained invisible house imp. The narrator then proceeds to show it off to all their other housemates, and then a bunch of scientists who chloroform it and get a mould of it - apparently it has sharp teeth and is about the size of a small boy.

Their landlady threatens to evict them over it, but they refuse to take the invisible imp thing. Fortunately, the issue sort of takes care of itself. They had this thing tied up for 12 weeks and apparently never tried feeding it, so naturally it just died.

It's such an odd story...

Oldest lighthouse in Maine☁️🌊

“Like spectral hounds across the sky,

The white clouds scud before the storm;

And naked in the howling night

The red-eyed lighthouse lifts its form.

The waves with slippery fingers clutch

The massive tower, and climb and fall,

And, muttering, growl with baffled rage

Their curses on the sturdy wall.

Up in the lonely tower he sits,

The keeper of the crimson light:

Silent and awe-struck does he hear

The imprecations of the night.”

~ Fitz-James O'Brien✨

Ok, dropping the titles due to popular demand

Invisible soul-sucker- What was that? (Fitz James O'Brien)

Pattern hair revenant- The diary of Mr. Pontyer (M. R. James)

Body-swapping demon- The transformation (Mary Shelley)

Life draining painting- The oval portrait (Edgar A. Poe)

Sentient haunted dollhouse- The haunted dollhouse (M. R. James)

Old man horse- Metzengerstein (Edgar A. Poe)

Lifeforce-draining lich (?)- Strange event in the life of Schalken the painter (Sheridan le Fanu) and, technically, Dracula and Dracula's Guest (Bram Stoker)

Mean to Jesus guy- literally anything about the Wandering Jew with an obvious cw for extreme antisemitism and I mean extreme like, literally used to promote genocide levels of extreme

Cocaine-powered flesh suit- Strange case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (R. L. Stevenson)

Bloodsucking tangle- An episode of cathedral history (M. R. James)

Shapeshifting half demon (?)- The Great God Pan (Arthur Machen)

Poisonous child- Rappaccini's daugther (Nathaniel Hawthorne)

Very mangled animals- The island of Dr. Moreau (H. G. Wells)

Whatever the fuck Gil-Martin is- Private memoirs and confessions of a justified sinner (James Hogg)

I like gothic fiction because the stories that don't use stock monsters (vampires, traditional ghosts) go all wacky. I've read stories about a revenant made of human hair that is bound to a pattern, about an invisible soul-sucking monster of unknown origin, about a body-swapping demon, about a painting that drained the model of life just by being painted, about a sentient dollhouse that every night re-enacts not just a crime that happened in its real life counterpart but also the supernatural haunting that ensued. Gothic fiction is awesome.

The Green Book: Writings on Irish Gothic, Supernatural and Fantastic Literature, Issue 14, The Swan River Press, Samhain 2019. Cover art by Stephen J. Clarke, info: swanriverpress.ie.

We encounter and enjoy authors mostly through their writing, forgetting sometimes that there are personalities behind their words, some astonishingly well-known in their time, often now relegated to small press rediscoveries. With sufficient spans of years, these authors and their personalities pass out of memory, becoming less familiar to us as people and more so as names on title pages. But it is important to remember that these authors lived and worked, had careers and relationships; some of them died while relatively unknown, others were widely celebrated for their creations. With this in mind, I’ve decided to focus the current issue on reminiscences, interviews, and memoirs in hopes of summoning the shades of these writers and to show that in some ways their lives were not always so different from our own. To that end, you will find a number of texts I have been collecting these past few years, now nestled here comfortably beside one another. Each one, I hope, will give you some insight into the lives of these authors, who they were, and a past that is not necessarily so far distant. There are first-hand accounts by authors with whom I hope you are now familiar. Rosa Mulholland, Cheiro, and Dorothy Macardle all relate anecdotes of their own experiences with the psychical and supernatural. Elsewhere in this issue, you can spend an entertaining evening with Mervyn Wall. In this talk, given to the Bram Stoker Society in 1987, he delves into witchcraft and details the origins of his best-loved novel, The Unfortunate Fursey (1946). We have a few interviews — “chats” — with those who worked as professionals, and whose names were familiar to the broader public on a weekly basis, as their stories were published and novels serialised in magazines of the day. Among these sketches you’ll be invited to spend agreeable afternoons with L.T. Meade, Charlotte Riddell, and Katharine Tynan. While they may not discuss strictly ghastly material, I hope these interviews bring us that much closer to authors whose works still find admiration of a modern readership. You’ll also find some brief memoirs, including litterateur William Winter’s reminiscence of his fallen comrade Fitz-James O’Brien, who died in the American Civil War; and Samuel Carter Hall, who conjures two of Dublin’s gothic greats: Charles Maturin and Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu — perhaps reminding us that these authors existed in a wider social world. However, the issue commences with Albert Power’s appraisal of George Croly’s Salathiel (1828), a novel which Stoker biographer Paul Murray posited as an influence on the composition of Dracula. Although, a tale of the Wandering Jew, Salathiel might have more in common thematically with Charles Maturin’s Melmoth the Wanderer, than Bram Stoker’s more famous book. Power aptly leads us through the life of Reverend Croly and how his book fits into the literary milieu of the dark fantastic. If you would like to read more about some of these writers among these pages, you’ll find lengthier profiles in earlier issues of The Green Book. In Issue 9: Rosa Mulholland; Issue 12: Mervyn Wall; Issue 13: Cheiro and Beatrice Grimshaw. While this issue and the next will serve as an intermission in our Guide to Irish Writers of Gothic, Supernatural, and Fantastic Fiction, fear not — we will return with more entries in future instalments.
