The Story of Clifford House by an anonymous author is a classic Victorian ghost story involving the renowned and intimidating Clifford House. Excerpt: "This story I will tell to you now, as I have promised to do so, and yet I can hardly make you believe in the reluctance with which I even allow my thoughts to go back to the time which I spent in that house--my first town residence after I was married. I had wished so much to go to town that spring--grown tired of my lovely country home, I suppose."
