Ghostly portrait visits haunt famed London artist Heaphey
A long account from the New York World recounts the Heaphey haunting in which the London artist Mr Heaphey encounters a mysterious young woman in his studio. She asks him to paint her portrait and later appears in scenes across England, with a book bound in Beauty guiding her appearances. The tale follows through to Lichfield and Derbyshire, with the artist perplexed by the spectral visitor who seems to know his sittings and pieces of the portrait. The story ends with the unidentified visitor’s true link to a sister’s portrait and a longer warning about the night side of nature.
