Also in Haworth, The Old Post Office in Haworth is recommended as the 'cosiest place to eat' in
The Telegraph & Argus:
The Old Post Office in Haworth is where “everything is just a little bit special” according to The Yorkshireman, thanks to its seasonal winter and autumn dishes full of “hearty flavour and local ingredients.”
The café on Main Street has a remarkable link with history in the village too, as it still has the original post office counter where the iconic Brontë sisters would send their novel manuscripts to their publishers back in the day.

Like the ghost of Catherine Earnshaw haunting Heathcliff, Emily's presence in the 21st century lingers in every line of the book and now in the upcoming film adaptation. She haunts readers and viewers, but she is not unwelcome. Her vision comforts as much as it unsettles.
Perhaps it is this very darkness that draws people to her work.
