Very enjoyable read, very much in the spirit of the originals!
Bedlam in Yellow is quite disturbing and creepy, while The Lost World is one of my favorite novels so it was a pleasure to meet Professor Challenger again.

[The Smoog · Rating 4 out of 5]

An enjoyable enough trio of tales containing stories which expand on the classic characters Thomas Carnacki, Professor Challenger, and Holmes and Watson. Whilst I’m not that fussed for the last two, the introduction of a supernatural element meant I enjoyed them more than I think I normally would.

It's exactly what you'd expect from the description, 3 enjoyable paranormal short stories set in 1800s London. Nicely written and creative, great way to spend an hour.
