| Summary | "Tales of the Wonder Club, Volume I" by M. Y. Halidom is a collection of fantastical stories written in the early 19th century. The narrative unfolds around a select group of gentlemen, known as the Wonder Club, who gather in an inn called “Ye Headless Lady” to share marvelous tales. With a focus on the supernatural and the intriguing, the text hints at whimsical adventures and a variety of curious characters such as the landlord, Jack Hearty, and the newly introduced guest, artist Vandyke McGuilp. At the start of the story, readers are introduced to the Wonder Club, a fraternity of discerning individuals who convene to tell and listen to stories that delve into the marvellous. Celebrating their tenth anniversary, the gathering is lively and infused with camaraderie and tradition. Mr. Oldstone, the elected chairman, initiates the festivities and draws attention to a new member, Vandyke McGuilp, just as one of the club members, Mr. Hardcase, is about to unfold the first tale of the evening titled "The Phantom Flea." As the club engages in banter, the scene is set for a night rich with storytelling, blending humor with eerie elements as the guests prepare for what promises to be an entertaining and haunting evening.
