Montague Rhodes James (1862-1936) was an English scholar, medievalist, and author of ghost stories. He was born in Goodnestone, Kent, and educated at Eton College and King's College, Cambridge. He was a Fellow and Provost of King's College from 1905 to 1918, and later served as Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cambridge from 1918 to 1921. James is best known for his ghost stories, which are considered among the best in the genre. His stories often feature antiquarian elements and are noted for their atmosphere of "antiquarian creepiness". He also wrote a number of scholarly works on medieval history and literature, including editions of the Latin and Greek texts of Apuleius and the New Testament Apocrypha.
