The weird menace pulps might be said to owe a debt to Wilkie Collins' The Woman in White -- along with the Gothic novel -- as what has been described as the first Sensation Novel.
For this reason, we point your attention to The Woman in White 150th Anniversary Project: In the words of the project's site, "One hundred and fifty years after its first publication, The Woman in White is being published once more in its original, weekly parts. For the first time in one and a half centuries readers can enjoy the original text as it was published. And experience the agonising week's wait after each cliff-hanging ending."

Enjoy!
