Features: Alfred Hitchcock, the master of suspense, admitted that his masterpieces such as The Birds, The Ice Maiden, The Rope, and The Third Kind of Fear drew inspiration from the pioneering works of suspense pioneers in the 1850s–1910s—a period hailed as the "Golden Ages" of suspense novels and ghost stories. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the host of Sherlock Holmes, was active during this era. At the same time, the literary giants who left their mark on world literature, such as O.
