The Seen and the Unseen

Gelesen von Sonia

(4,271 Sterne; 24 Bewertungen)

Is it true that people can literally be scared to death ? Is it possible to photograph astral projections ? What happens if you play with a pack of cards which belonged to a dead card-trickster ?

These and more questions are raised and answered in ''The Seen and the Unseen'' (first published in 1900), a collection of twelve short stories of a supernatural and uncanny nature by English author Richard Marsh (1857-1915), famous for such mystery/horror novels as ''The Beetle'' and ''The Goddess: A Demon''.

So if you feel you are ready for some goosebumps before bedtime, snuggle up and have a listen. - Summary by Sonia (9 hr 6 min)

Marsh displays his varied and often offbeat styles. Most of these are very good, a couple even excellent. Sonia presented as fine a reading as one could ask. Thank you.
