Synopsis

The Human Vampire; Or, The Elixir Of Life is an account of the lurid, sinful unrest of wealthy New Yorker Clifford Derwent. And also of young women who were wedded for their money and mysteriously widowed. And about a manhunt for two beautiful twins snatched from their beds in the dead of night and the unspeakable murder of underprivileged children to brew an unhallowed "Magic Elixir."

And who is this man who gets younger?

A brother of one of the widows falls upon this grisly mystery and its morbid truths. Can he stop this crafter of vile deception and a miracle potion?

The Haunted Chamber is a new transcription from an undated turn of the century Mershon Company hardcover.

Both The Human Vampire; Or, The Elixir Of Life and The Haunted Chamber were published in the late 1880s and are a product of their time. The stories have social norms, prejudices, stereotypes, and attitudes of the era that do not represent today's society or values.
