The Three Impostors is a collection of short stories written by Arthur Machen, a Welsh author and mystic. Originally published in 1895, the book is a collection of interconnected stories that revolve around a group of three mysterious individuals who are believed to be impostors. The stories are set in London and explore themes of horror, the supernatural, and the occult. The book is divided into three parts, each of which contains a series of stories that are connected by a common thread. The first part introduces the three impostors, who are believed to be a group of criminals or conspirators. The second part delves deeper into their mysterious identities and the strange events that surround them. The third part brings the stories to a climax, revealing the true nature of the three impostors and their connection to the supernatural.Throughout the book, Machen explores the darker side of human nature and the mysteries that lie beyond the physical world. His writing is atmospheric and evocative, drawing the reader into a world of shadows and secrets. The Three Impostors is considered a classic of horror and supernatural fiction, and has influenced many writers in the genre.He was pondering these problems one evening in a house of call in the Strand, and the obstinacy with which the persons he so ardently desired to meet hung back gave the modest tankard before him an additional touch of bitter. As it happened, he was alone in his compartment, and, without thinking, he uttered aloud the burden of his meditations. How bizarre it all is!' he said, a man walking the pavement with the dread of a timid-looking young man with spectacles continually hovering before his eyes. And there was some tremendous feeling at work, I could swear to that.'This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
