About this book

The Haunted and the Haunters (also known as The House and the Brain) features a wealthy, rational-minded narrator who, armed with scientific instruments and skeptical determination, volunteers to spend a night alone in a notoriously and violently haunted London house. He is convinced that the disturbances are simply human fraud or psychological phenomena. However, as the night progresses, the narrator is confronted by a series of increasingly intense and inexplicable terrors that defy all rational explanation. He soon discovers that the house is cursed not by a simple ghost, but by a complex, ancient force tied to a hidden, sinister history.

From the influential pen of Edward Bulwer-Lytton, the prolific Victorian novelist and playwright, comes a foundational work of supernatural fiction that blends skeptical inquiry with terrifying reality.

This masterful story is a landmark in Victorian ghost fiction, demonstrating Bulwer-Lytton's genius for blending intellectual curiosity with deep, creeping dread. It is essential reading for fans of classic supernatural fiction and the origins of psychological horror.
