Six short stories having the world of the supernatural as their main theme.
Disquieting and mysterious presences, suspense, the atavic fear of the unknown are the characteristic ingredients of these stories.
They were written in a pre-freudian time where the irrational was still unknown and therefore enigmatic and threatening. Taken from top-level authors – E. A. Poe, J. K. Jerome, E. G. Swain, E. F. Benson, M. R. James, J. G. Lang – they are accompanied by inserts on supernatural entities and on cultural and historical aspects related to the contents of the tales.
