Wnętrza zapomnianych bibliotek i zakurzonych antykwariatów, skąpane w blasku świec. Wystarczy uchylić drzwi, by odurzyć się zapachem grozy. Zbiór klasycznych opowiadań o duchach. Mistrz słowa i nastroju układa historie w taki sposób, że strach chwyta czytelnika za kark jeszcze zanim na arenie pojawi się zjawisko nadprzyrodzone. Niespokojny sen, stary obraz na ścianie czy zapomniany pamiętnik - każdy z tych atrybutów może być portalem dla zjaw i żądnych zemsty duchów. O ich ingerencji często świadczą tylko drobne nieprawidłowości w stanie lub zachowaniu przedmiotów. Trzeba mieć się na baczności!Prawdziwa uczta dla miłośników niesamowitości spod znaku Lovecrafta.Montague Rhodes James (1862-1936) - brytyjski autor utworów grozy. Pracował naukowo na uniwersytecie w Cambridge, badał historię średniowiecza i biblistykę. Tłumaczył również księgi religijne, wydał apokryfy Nowego Testamentu. Na boku kariery uniwersyteckiej tworzył opowiadania przesycone niesamowitością - najpierw odczytywał je w kręgu znajomych, później zaczął publikować. W swojej twórczości wyszedł poza strukturę gotyckiej opowieści grozy - fabułę utworów osadził we współczesnych realiach, dzięki czemu czytelnik mógł bardziej utożsamić się z bohaterami. Inspirował takich twórców jak H.P. Lovecraft.

A co jeśli rzeczywistość, której doświadczamy, jest tylko drobnym przebłyskiem tego, co naprawdę nas otacza?Pewnego wrześniowego dnia mężczyzna postanawia odsapnąć na łonie natury. Szum strumyka i ciepło słońca usypiają go, a jednak on ma poczucie, że sen jest rzeczywistością. Cała natura dookoła podpowiada mu, co powinien zrobić w dalszych krokach. Dzięki zawartości tajemniczych flakonów bohater doznaje rozszerzenia zmysłów - widzi, słyszy i czuje więcej niż do tej pory. Jest gotów, by stawić czoła Mocom Ciemności. Fantasmagoryczna wizja przywodzi skojarzenia z "Alicją w Krainie Czarów" Lewisa Carolla.Montague Rhodes James (1862-1936) - brytyjski autor utworów grozy.
