The Night-Side of Nature; Or, Ghosts and Ghost-Seers

by Catherine CROWE (1803 - 1876)

Chapter 2 - The Dweller in the Temple

The stories in Volume 1 centre on dreams, psychic presentiments, traces, wraiths, doppelgängers, apparitions, and imaginings of the after-life. Crowe's vivid tales, written with great energy and imagination, are classic examples of nineteenth-century spiritualist writing and strongly influenced other authors as well as providing inspiration for later adherents of ghost-seeing and psychic culture. - Summary by Cambridge University Press
