	The Berkeley Square Thing by T. Slemen
		Long before Mayfair's Berkeley Square was synonymous with nightingales (thanks to Eric Maschwitz's song), the place was invariably associated with a rather nasty ghost that was alleged to inhabit number 50, a four-storey townhouse that dated back to the 1740s.
		Price scoured periodicals and newspapers from the mid 18th century onwards for a reference to the ghost of Berkeley Square, and discovered that in the 1790s, a gang of counterfeiters and coin-clippers had used number 50 as their headquarters.
		In 1840, several neighbours of number 50 Berkeley Square heard a medley of strange sounds emanating from the haunted house; bumps on the stairs, dragging noises as if heavy objects were being moved around, jangling of signal bells below the stairs, and the tramping of footsteps.

	Literature Film Quarterly: Frank Lloyd's Berkeley Square (1933): Re-adapting Henry James's The Sense of the Past
		Director Frank Lloyd's romantic fantasy film Berkeley Square (Fox, 1933) holds a strange but nearly forgotten place in cinema and literary history: It is the first film based on a work by Henry James.
		Leon Edel, one of few to note Berkeley Square's Jamesian source, wrote in 1984 that Leslie Howard's performance in the leading role of Peter Standish-which received an Oscar nomination in 1933-was a thing of "lasting beauty" (II:23).
		Berkeley Square (both play and film) did temporarily experience a good deal of "class" popularity-as a literate and romantic fantasy costume drama-but not, on its face, as a James adaptation.
