The Demoiselle d'Ys
"The Demoiselle d'Ys" is a ghost story by American writer Robert W. Chambers, published in his short story collection The King in Yellow (1895). Set in France, the story presages the theme of H. G. Wells's The Door in the Wall, published in 1906. The name Jeanne d'Ys is a homophone for the word jaundice and continues the symbolism of The King in Yellow. [1]
