First appearance: an authentic narrative of a haunted house
As a supporting figure in Short Fiction, Sir Arthur T⸺n is not background color—the story leans on what they do once the chapter opens.
Lady Margaret's uncle; suspected of murdering Hugh Tisdall, pressures her to marry his son, and orchestrates a murder plot against her.
Sir Arthur T⸺n is a man of standing whose orderly life is disrupted by an encounter with the supernatural that he cannot explain away. The visitation leaves him shaken in a way that his position and temperament make him ill-equipped to conceal or process. His experience becomes one of the story's central testimonies to the reality of the uncanny, and his struggle to reconcile what he has seen with what he believes gives the tale its anxious, unsettled pulse.
