An interesting site of some texts and stories that have fell out of copyright : [GASLIGHT electronic text and discussion site](http://gaslight.mtroyal.ca/gaslight/)

Among the authors present : Arthur Conan Doyle, H.P. Lovecraft (including his collaboration with Houdini), Arthur Machen, Sheridan Le Fanu, Bulwer-Lytton and many more.

A suggestion though, go through the list of “texts by authors”, not the “chronological list” as there are more texts available in the former.

So, enjoy !

I will mention the [Project Gutenberg](http://www.gutenberg.org/catalog/) site, because it sounds like you’d like it.
