A travelling hypnotist with a passion for stories places chance acquaintances in a trance and records the tales they have to tell. This is the conceit linking this set of fantastical stories, in which hidden treasure, the legendary deeds of Robin Hood, terrible spectres, haunted hilltops, a conversation with an Egyptian mummy, and even a visitor from Mars, all feature.
Originally published in 1896 this is a whimsical, entertaining and highly unusual collection of Victorian stories dealing with the fantastic, the otherworldly and the ghostly.
