This is a collection of tales of the supernatural, where patients of Dr Heselius are plagued by malignant apparitions and vampires, or are drugged into a state of living death. The doctor usually explains such phenomena in terms of psychopathology, but the author is ambivalent to such theories.

'In a Glass Darkly, now published in the World Classics series, still makes for uneasy reading late at night.'Moy McCory, The Times Magazine
Joseph Thomas Sheridan Le Fanu (1814 - 1873) was an Irish writer of Gothic tales and mystery novels. He was a leading ghost story writer of the nineteenth century and was central to the development of the genre in the Victorian era. M. R. James described Le Fanu as "absolutely in the first rank as a writer of ghost stories". Three of his best-known works are Uncle Silas, Carmilla and The House by the Churchyard. --Wikipedia
