Evidence:
'I enjoyed your tales, the uneasy ones ["Tales of the Uneasy"]—nasty on any night before going to bed. I wonder which famous case you were thinking of when you wrote “The Tiger Skin”. Was it Penrudduck? That great house is now a desolation, and I believe no visitors go there [...] Some of your stories are rather horrible.'
