A part of a nice cheap Dover boxed set, but some average stories here, barring the first one, which is a Hesselius tale.

Green Tea and Other Ghost Stories : Green Tea - J. Sheridan Le Fanu
Green Tea and Other Ghost Stories : Squire Toby's Will - J. Sheridan Le Fanu
Green Tea and Other Ghost Stories : The Fortunes of Sir Robert Ardagh - J. Sheridan Le Fanu

Hesselius investigates a spectre that tends to not want to meet him.

Disambiguation notice
There are several different collections with stories by LeFanu starting Green Tea and .... The Dover edition titled "Green Tea and Other Ghost Stories" includes Green Tea, Squire Toby's Will, The Fortunes of Sir Robert Ardagh, and Sir Dominick's Bargain. (96 pages, ISBN ). "Green Tea and Other Strange Tales" from Ægypan Press (also listed as being from Lightning Press, Inc.) has Green Tea, Mr. Justice Harbottle, Madam Crowl's Ghost, and The Dead Sexton. (128 pages, ISBN 1598187074).

Google Books and Amazon record an edition from Wildside Press (176 pages, ISBN 1587159899) that has the same title, contents and cover (!) as the Ægypan Press edition (which I checked the physical copy of.)

The 1945 Arkham Press edition "Green Tea and Other Stories" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Te...) has no ISBN, 350 pages and 15 stories.

4 chilling tales by great Victorian master. Famous title story concerns an English cleric’s bouts with a malignant spectral illusion.

LeFanu brought high craftsmanship, literary skill and psychological penetration to his stories, qualities which elevate them above most work in the genre. This is an excellent introduction to his oeuvre. New introductory Note.
