R.I.P (a spook inspired reading challenge)

R.I.P

I’ve always wanted to participate in R.I.P (Readers Imbibing Peril) – well, not always, but since whenever I first became aware of it – but some self-imposed reading schedule has precluded me in years previous.

But not this year – I planned ahead; wrapped up my Back to the Classics 2019 Challenge early, so I’d be ready.

I’m going for Peril in the First Degree by reading four works from the loosely defined criteria. I will read:

The short stories of Edgar Allan Poe

The Adventure of the Greek Interpreter (a Sherlock Holmes short story)

Coraline by Neil Gaiman

Dracula by Bram Stoker

Update: The following were not part of my original R.I.P plan, but since they are both Ghost Stories, I'm adding them as bonus reads for my R.I.P challenge.

Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare

A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens
