This chilling collection weaves together eerie tales that blend the fantastic with decadent themes, rich in satanic imagery and morbid atmospheres. Set against the backdrop of Italian pastoral beauty, the stories explore the unsettling intrusion of the past into the lives of their protagonists. Notable tales include a prince's dangerous love for a reptilian beauty, a deadly wedding plot, and a haunting ghostly voice that corrupts a composer's work. Each narrative captivates with its intricate blend of love, obsession, and the supernatural.
