Retellings of classic Victorian tales of the supernatural in equal parts gripping, haunting and terrifying \u2013 and which continue to captivate to this day.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"A Warning to the Curious (1972) - A Ghost Story for Christmas\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/w7xJSQY8Ssw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Previously only available on DVD, the BFI are launching a beautifully packaged limited-edition three-disc Blu-ray boxset, <i>Ghost Stories For Christmas<\/i> Volume 1, just in time for \u2026 Christmas.<br \/>\nCoinciding with the awesome UK-wide <a href=\"https:\/\/indreamsaremonsters.co.uk\/\"><i>In Dreams Are Monsters<\/i><\/a> horror film season, this box set focuses on the master of ghost storytelling, M.R.
