The book presents a collection of mystical, mysterious, and eerie stories created by Western European and American writers from the 18th to the 20th centuries. Despite their diversity, these works are united by the theme of the supernatural, which intrudes into the ordinary course of everyday life. The authors immerse their characters and readers in a terrifying gothic world full of metaphysical and psychological mysteries that defy conventional, rational explanations. Echoing each other through characters, situations, and meanings, the gothic plots of the book reveal to the reader behind the veil of ordinary reality an irrational and frightening world that overturns the self-assured claims to all-knowingness inherent in the people of the New Time.
