The Inn of Two Witches. Scary Stories

 

The book presents a collection of mystical, mysterious, and eerie stories created by Western European and American writers of the 18th to 20th centuries. About ghosts, vampires, witches, the resurrected dead, nightmare dreams, deals with the devil, and love that... conquers death, narrate both famous authors (A. Conan Doyle, W. Collins, E.A. Poe, P. Merimee, E.A. Poe, R. L. Stevenson, G. Mayrink, H. F. Lovecraft, A. Beers) and comparatively lesser-known creators of terrifying plots (E. Wharton, E. Mitchell, E. and H. Heron, A. Edwards). Echoing each other with characters, situations, and meanings, the gothic plots of the book reveal to the reader, beneath the veil of everyday reality, an irrational and frightening world that undermines the self-confident claims to omniscience characteristic of man in the Modern Age.
