This early work by J. Sheridan Le Fanu was originally published in 1853 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography as part of our Cryptofiction Classics series. 'An Account of Some Strange Disturbances in Aungier Street' is a short story about strange occurrences in a house where a judge had once hung himself and now monsters of the night roam its halls. Joseph Thomas Sheridan Le Fanu was born in Dublin in 1814. His was a literary family of Huguenot origins; both his grandmother Alicia Sheridan Le Fanu and his great-uncle Richard Brinsley Sheridan were playwrights, and his niece Rhoda Broughton would go on to become a successful novelist. At his peak, le Fanu was the leading ghost-story writer of the nineteenth century, and he is now seen as central to the development of the genre in the Victorian era
