| Summary | "The Haunted Hour: An Anthology" by Margaret Widdemer is a collection of ghost-themed poetry compiled in the early 20th century. This anthology features poems that explore the themes of spirits returning to the earthly realm, encapsulating the intrinsic connection between the living and the dead. With a variety of contributors, the collection includes individual experiences and observations regarding loss, longing, and the supernatural. The opening of the anthology sets a mysterious and introspective tone, introducing readers to the concept of All Souls' Night and the interplay between the living and the deceased. Through various poems, feelings of yearning and nostalgia are evoked, as characters reflect on cherished memories, encounters with spirits, and the metaphysical tie that binds them to the departed. The atmosphere is heavy with themes of mortality and the haunting presence of loved ones lost, inviting readers to ponder the ethereal connections that persist even beyond death.
