| THE MUMMY'S FOOT by Théophile Gautier from Musée des familles, Vol. VII (1840). AFTER THREE THOUSAND YEARS by Jane G. Austin from Putnam's Magazine, Vol. II (1868). LOST IN A PYRAMID, OR THE MUMMYʻS CURSE by Louisa May Alcott from The New World Magazine, Vol. I (1869). LOT NO. 249 by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle from Harperʻs, Vol. LXXXV (1892). - Long before the opening of Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922 or Boris Karloff's film portrayal of "Imhotep" ten years later, legends of the Mummy enthralled readers of the Western world. The Gothic horror tales collected in this anthology reflect the Victorian fascination with Egypt's oldest inhabitants.In Curse of the Mummy, four master storytellers of the nineteenth century share gripping tales of cursed plunder and injudicious flirtations with eldritch magic.
