Produktinformationen "Count Magnus (Fantasy and Horror Classics)"
An English traveler, Mr. Wraxall, finds himself irresistibly drawn to the history of the late Baron Magnus in a remote Swedish town. Researching into the nobleman's sinister legacy, he discovers whispered rumors of dark pacts and unholy pilgrimages. Relentless curiosity leads him to the Baron's fortified mausoleum, which bears three mysterious padlocks. By prying too deeply into the Count's secrets and disturbing his final resting place, the traveler awakens not only the Baron himself but a terrifying, spectral attendant bound by ancient, infernal commitments. From the mind of M. R. James, the acknowledged master who redefined the ghost story for the 20th century and founded the 'antiquarian ghost story' genre, comes a chilling tale of forbidden knowledge and infernal pacts. This story is a quintessential example of James' genius for combining creeping dread with a shocking, monstrous climax. It is essential reading for fans of classic ghost stories and supernatural fiction, proving that some secrets are best left locked away forever.
