Publisher's Summary

"Graves and Goblins"was first published in 1876 in writer and dark romantic Nathaniel Hawthorne’s short story collection, The Dolliver Romance and Other Pieces. In definitive Hawthorne style, this ruminative soliloquy is written from the point of view of a ghost. 

In "Graves and Goblins", the ghost, or rather Hawthorne, discusses life and death, the living and the dead, considering and dealing with one’s mortality, and the soul and the spiritual afterlife. "Graves and Goblins" is unmissable Hawthorne as he takes traditional horror or ghost story tropes and uses them to discuss weighty and timeless themes such as the above and many more.
