H. G. Wells is well-known for his science fiction stories, from War of the Worlds to The Invisible Man, but he also wrote supernatural tales and strange fantasies. The stories run from the horrific to the humorous, including ghosts, curses, miracles, fairies, and other magical ingredients. Some are satirical, and some are infused with his particular (often unorthodox) beliefs. Several are of the "rational explanations" variety, while others indulge in a suspension of disbelief. Together, they make a fascinating companion to his better-known tales of scientific marvels.
