Summary "Uncanny Tales" by Mrs. Molesworth is a collection of ghost stories written in the late 19th century. The narratives within this anthology explore eerie and supernatural themes, with an emphasis on the strange occurrences surrounding a family who temporarily resides in a supposedly haunted house, Finster St. Mabyn. The main characters include the curious Leila, her delicate younger brother Dormer, and their family members, as they navigate the chilling experiences that unfold around them. The opening of the book introduces readers to Finster St. Mabyn, a captivating and ancient seaside house that becomes the temporary residence for Leila's family. Initially unaware of its haunted reputation, they are drawn by its charm and the allure of sea air for recovery from illness. As they settle in, unsettling experiences begin to emerge, particularly for young Dormer, who senses eerie coldness and glimpses strange shadows that evoke a supernatural presence. This captivating premise sets the stage for a deeper exploration of the family's growing awareness of the mysterious and unsettling forces at play in their new home, hinting at the unfolding ghostly dramas that will challenge their perceptions of reality.
