""The Haunted and the Haunters or the House and the Brain"" is a novella written by Sir Edward Bulwer-Lytton, first published in 1859. The story follows a young man named Austin who decides to spend the night in a supposedly haunted house, despite warnings from the locals. As the night progresses, Austin encounters a series of supernatural occurrences, including ghostly apparitions and unexplained sounds.

""The Haunted and the Haunters or the House and the Brain"" is a classic example of Victorian horror fiction, exploring themes of madness, the supernatural, and the power of the human mind.
