William Carleton - Author of the 34th Best Classic Horror Short Story 1800-1849



Continuing with the countdown, William Carleton (1794-1869) is the next author on the list. One of fourteen children, Carleton grew up on an Irish farm and was, for the most part, self-educated. He penned a handful of novels and a haunting horror short story that first appeared in The Dublin Literary Gazette. I will provide the link to it in my next post.
