^^^ This is a good M.R. James story to start with. Also if you are reading the King in Yellow, just treat it like any other collection of stories. It baits you into thinking there might be a bigger narrative, but it doesn't go anywhere lol

It's great but just be aware "The King in Yellow" is:
>The Repairer of Reputations
>The Mask
>In the Court of the Dragon
>The Yellow Sign
>The Prophets' Paradise

There are other stories in there but they aren't horror stories and I wouldn't bother with them, they are thrown in there because publishers in the 1800's gave zero fucks

"A Study in Emerald" is a short story written by British fantasy and graphic novel author Neil Gaiman. The story is a Sherlock Holmes pastiche transferred to the Cthulhu Mythos universe of horror writer H. P. Lovecraft.
