To Be Read at Dusk (1852) is a short story written by Charles Dickens, and was first published in Heath's Keepsake. In the text, five couriers talking amongst themselves outside a convent on the summit of the Great St Bernard are overheard by the narrator as two of their group's relate short ghost stories; one of a woman who abandons her husband for a man who had previously appeared in her nightmares, and another of a man who sees an apparition of his brother, and is thereby warned of the latter's death.
