  • 6 stories
  • An abridged edition of the 7-story collection Pope Jacynth and More Supernatural Tales (1956). Encyclopedia of Fantasy lists the latter as "(coll 1956; with 1 story cut vt Ravenna and her Ghosts 1962)". Story titles --and their sequence in 1st editions-- are identical except that this collection does not contain the novella "Winthrop's Adventure".
  • WorldCat library record are misleading: • {{OCLC|17426987}} notes, perhaps from the book, "Originally published in Great Britain by Peter Owen under the title: Pope Jacynth and more supernatural tales." [1956] • {{OCLC|752860353}} displays heading (quote): [Pope Jacynth, and other fantastic tales.] Ravenna and her Ghosts. On the former, see above. On the latter, only three contents match the 6-story collection Pope Jacynth and Other Fantastic Tales (Grant Richards, 1904).
