‘There is something about art history and archaeology that makes previous ages seem especially immediate. No wonder so many scholars of those disciplines have turned to writing ghost stories – chief among them M.R. James.’ @cjfaraday.bsky.social reads his tales with an antiquarian eye
The ghostly world of M.R. James
Best known for his horrifying tales of the supernatural, the author was inspired by his work as a medievalist and the spookiness of antique objects, writes Christina J. Faraday

I went to see a community theatre production of "A Sherlock Carol", a mash-up of Sherlock Holmes and A Christmas Carol. Holmes is struggling with his identity post-Moriarty. He ends up being visited by Scrooge's ghost and goes through a similar transformation. It was a lot of fun!

Dec 14 1975 THE ADVENTURES OF SHERLOCK HOLMES' SMARTER BROTHER opens. Gene Wilder writes, directs & stars in an hilariously silly 1891-set period romp wherein Sherlock Holmes' younger, jealous sibling (Wilder) is tasked with unmasking a sexy music hall performer's blackmailer.
