Green Tea and Other Ghost Stories is a collection of fantasy and horror short stories by author J. Sheridan Le Fanu. It was released in 1945 and was the author's first book to be published in the United States. It was published by Arkham House in an edition of 2,026 copies. A much less extensive collection of Le Fanu stories was published under the same title by Dover Books in 1993.
Green Tea and Other Ghost Stories contains the following tales:
New York Times reviewer D. C. Russell wrote that although Le Fanu's storytelling skills were impressive, "the end of every story left me with a feeling of disappointment". Russell concluded that while Le Fanu "may write with the skill of an adult, the thought is without subtlety".
