Seen and the Unseen
'Seen and the Unseen' Summary
The Seen and the Unseen is a collection of twelve short stories that explore the supernatural and the uncanny. The stories range from tales of haunted houses and ghostly apparitions to investigations into the occult and the paranormal. Marsh's writing is atmospheric and suspenseful, creating a sense of unease and dread that will linger long after the stories are finished. In the title story, a young woman is haunted by the ghost of her dead lover. In "The Doll's House," a group of children discover a mysterious dollhouse that seems to have a life of its own. And in "The Card-Trickster," a man becomes obsessed with a pack of cards that belonged to a dead magician. Marsh's stories are not for the faint of heart. They are full of suspense, atmosphere, and dread. But they are also well-written and thought-provoking, exploring the dark recesses of the human psyche and the mysteries of the unknown.Book Details
