Contributors include Lewis, the young Walter Scott, William Taylor of Norwich, John Leyden, and Robert Southey.
Appendices contain selections from Tales of Terror (1801), a text long intertwined with Lewisโs collection; information on Scottโs An Apology for Tales of Terror (1799); and parodies and reviews of Lewisโs particular brand of Gothic poetry.
