There’s a certain kind of ghost story that doesn’t knock at the door or rattle chains. It whispers. It lingers. It asks you to listen a little more closely than you usually do.

Virginia Woolf remains one of the most influential voices in 20th-century literature, and A Haunted House shows why. In just a few pages she turns a simple domestic space into something tender, uncanny, and alive with memory. It’s a ghost story without the usual theatrics—quiet, rhythmic, almost like the house itself is breathing.

If you enjoy these classic tales, you’ll find hundreds more—along with original stories—across the Short Storyverse at shortstoryverses.com. Mysteries, frights, fantasies, holidays, and timeless literature, all waiting for you whenever you’re ready to listen.
