People at the bottom of the garden: a Dublin story of the supernatural
This is a revised, improved version of one of “Thirteen Tales Told by a Dubliner”, the original collection of 13 stories of the supernatural featured on this channel.
“People at the bottom of the garden”
O what can ail thee, knight at arms
Alone and palely loitering?
The sedge has withered from the lake
And no birds sing.
(Keats)
Frank Conmee buys a suburban semi-detached house in Terenure, Dublin. But then he meets the people at the bottom of the garden, especially the ravishing Alice Le Bret, daughter of Milo Le Bret, the lord of Kimmage Manor. She draws him into a world of Norman chivalry that becomes more real than life in suburbia. But one day she is gone.
