Sir Arthur Conan Doyle isn’t the first name that comes to mind when discussing horror, but he actually wrote many horror short stories, including “Lot No.249” which I believe was one of the inspirations for the original movie version of “The Mummy”. It’s quite a good story, too. Some of Conan Doyle’s horror stories are very unconventional and highly original, a good example being “The Horror of the Heights”.
