Re: Horror Recommendations for the Unenlightened

Quite a few of the later works are easily available in modern editions, but some aren't that easy to find, so here are a few links that might help:

The Poems of Ossian:

James MacPherson's "Ossian" (E-text Index)

"Kilmenny":

(This site also has quite a few other poems and tales by Hogg in the supernatural vein.)

"The Wild Huntsman" (as translated by Scott) and "Lenore" (as translated by Rossetti):

Lenore

Thomas Moore's "The Ring":

The Complete Poems of Sir Thomas Moore eBook

His The Epicurean and Alciphron have been reprinted in a 2003 paperback edition by University Press of the Pacific, still available I believe -- though these are not supernatural tales themselves, they do have some very striking eerie passages.

"Sir Bertrand", complete with Ms. Aiken's introductory essay, is here:

Aikin, from Misc. Pieces in Prose (1773)

while the tale itself is available in several anthologies.
