In a Glass Darkly, v. 1/3 by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu

"In a Glass Darkly, v. 1/3" by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu is a collection of stories published in 1872. Presented as case files from occult detective Dr. Martin Hesselius, these five Gothic tales explore psychological terror and supernatural mysteries. From a clergyman haunted by a demonic monkey to a sea captain stalked by a sinister dwarf, each story delves into dark encounters. The collection includes "Carmilla," a pioneering vampire tale that predated Bram Stoker's "Dracula" by twenty-five years and influenced vampire literature for generations.
