First published in 1876, The Haunted Hotel, by Wilkie Collins was a novel written about the death of the wealthy Lord and other individuals. The novel itself is one of over a couple hundred stories, books, scripts, and more by Collins. He was known for his writing and was an extremely popular author due to his childhood friendship with the author Charles Dickens. Collins grew up in England but traveled amongst Europe while writing these stories and tales to be published. Although there are many, this particular novel is set in, first England, and then ends up taking place in the beautiful part of Italy, known as Venice. As described in the book this was a place of elegance, wealth, royalty, and beauty. The city is described by its beautiful architecture, of tall, freshly painted white buildings with several arches and windows. These buildings stood close to one another all along the canals, which ran through the entire city of Venice. The water in these canals, was murky, calm, and unappealing for drinking, bathing, or swimming, but was a part of the city and grew to be of great importance for travel and trade in the later years of its existence. Within this novel, the description of this wonderful place began to switch gears as things took a turn for the worst for a few characters. The place that was once a wealthy and royal part of Italy according to the plot of the novel, soon turned into a place of death, betrayal, and disaster for Lord Montbarry and all those closely involved in his life. .   . . ......

Is there no explanation of the mystery of The Haunted Hotel? Is The Haunted Hotel the tale of a haunting -- or the tale of a crime? The ghost of Lord Montberry haunts the Palace Hotel in Venice --- or does it? Montberry's beautiful-yet-terrifying wife, the Countess Narona, and her erstwhile brother are the center of the terror that fills the Palace Hotel. Are their malefactions at the root of the haunting -- or is there something darker, something much more unknowable at work?
