Like his brothers Edward Frederic and Robert Hugh, A. C. Benson was noted as an author of ghost stories. The bulk of his published ghost stories in the two volumes "The Hill of Trouble and Other Stories" (1903) and "The Isles of Sunset" (1904) were written for his pupils as moral allegories. After Arthur's death, Fred Benson found a collection of unpublished ghost stories. He included two of them in a book, "Basil Netherby" (1927); the title story was renamed "House at Treheale" and the volume was completed by the long piece "The Uttermost Farthing"; the fate of the rest of the stories is unknown. "Paul the Minstrel and Other Stories" (1911, reprinted 1977) collects the contents of "The Hill of Trouble and Other Stories" and "The Isles of Sunset". Nine of Arthur's ghost stories are included in David Stuart Davies (ed), "The Temple of Death: The Ghost Stories of A. C. & R. H. Benson" (Wordsworth, 2007), together with seven by his brother R. H. Benson, while nine of Arthur's and ten of Robert's are included in "Ghosts in the House" (Ash-Tree, 1996); the contents of the joint collections are similar but not identical.
