Synopsis
Excerpt from The Three Impostors or the Transmutations
And Mr. Joseph Walters is going to stay the night? Said the smooth clean-shaven man to his companion, an individual not of the most charming appearance, who had chosen to make his ginger colored mustache merge into a pair of short chin whiskers.
The two stood at the hall door, grinning evilly at each other; and presently a girl ran quickly down the stairs, and joined them. She was quite young, with a quaint and piquant rather than a beautiful face, and her eyes were of a shining hazel. She held a neat paper parcel in one hand, and laughed with her friends.

About the Author
"Of living creators of cosmic fear raised to its most artistic pitch, few if any can hope to equal the versatile Arthur Machen." H.P. Lovecraft.
Arthur Machen (1863–1947) was born Arthur Llewellyn Jones in Caerleon in Wales. Moving to London, but living an impoverished existence, Machen eventually found success with his horror novella The Great God Pan, and soon after The Three Impostors. Machen firmly established himself as a master storyteller of decadent supernatural horror, publishing several occult and weird tales with memorable plots and a real skill for the esoteric, creating dark and suspenseful atmospheres.
