Beschreibung
Contemporaries of Sherlock Holmes, the occult detectives were Victorian- and Edwardian-era investigators concerned with all manner of psychic, spectral and paranormal matters, eager to separate reality—no matter how bizarre—from hoaxers and con men.
In this volume, renowned psychic investigator Dr. John Silence delves into five cases, ranging from the psychical invasion of a long-dead resident upon a writer of humorous tales to disturbing incidents of lycanthropy, with a twist only Dr. John Silence could conceive.

Über den Autor
Algernon Henry Blackwood (1869 - 1951) was an English short story writer and novelist, one of the most prolific writers of ghost stories in the history of the genre. He was also a journalist and a broadcasting narrator. S. T. Joshi has stated that "his work is more consistently meritorious than any weird writer's except Dunsany's" and that his short story collection Incredible Adventures (1914) "may be the premier weird collection of this or any other century".
