Rudyard Kipling 
The Phantom ’Rickshaw and Other Ghost Stories 

The Phantom ’Rickshaw and Other Tales, also known as The Phantom ’Rickshaw & other Eerie Tales, is a collection of short stories by Rudyard Kipling, first published in 1888. The Phantom Rickshaw & Other Eerie Tales brings together four of Kipling’s most-loved short stories. Each deals with events that can’t quite be explained away, whether a traditional ghost story, a terrifyingly realistic nightmare or a sumptuous and lavish romance. Powerful, exotic and extravagant, these tales are rated, by some, to be the best stories Kipling ever wrote, with The Man Who Would Be King being hailed as the finest story in the English language.
