520			_a"Curious, if True" by Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell is a collection of strange tales written in the mid-19th century. The opening story, "The Old Nurse's Story," introduces readers to Miss Rosamond, an orphan, and her nurse, who recounts the tragic history of Rosamond's family, leading to a haunting narrative set in Furnivall Manor House, steeped in memories of loss and mystery. The beginning of the book presents the old nurse sharing her experiences with Miss Rosamond, beginning from the circumstances of her parents’ death and the promise she made to her mistress on her deathbed. As they move to Furnivall Manor, the nurse describes the eerie atmosphere of the grand, yet dilapidated home, hinting at its dark legacy. Strange occurrences unfold as Miss Rosamond hears the whispers of a ghostly child and eerie organ music that seems to echo through the house, setting the stage for an unfolding tale about family, secrets, and the supernatural.
