M. R. James was a prolific and hugely successful author, nowcredited with redefining the ghost tale form. Byabandoning many of the formal gothic clichés of his predecessors and using morecontemporary settings, James established the stage for potential generations of writers.

Originally published in 1904, “Oh, Whistle, and I’llCome for you, My Lad” is the story of a man who digs up a bronze whistle, which,after blowing it, leads to unexpected consequences. Haunting however reasonable,”Oh, Whistle, and I’ll Come to You, My Lad” rates among his best and mostunderrated stories.
