90 years ago today, at 3pm, M.R. James passed away in the Lodge at Eton College. A great mediaevalist and paleographer, his academic work is lauded to this day. But it is as the father of the modern ghost story that we chiefly remember and admire him. We hope The Haunted Archive, in some small way, commemorates his lasting contribution to the genre. www.crumpledlinenpress.com
