From the monumental figure of Johann Friedrich von Schiller, Germany's most celebrated dramatist, poet, and philosopher, comes a gripping and unfinished masterpiece of psychological terror and political intrigue.

The Ghost-Seer - Or, the Apparitionist (Der Geisterseher) abandons traditional Gothic trappings for the sunlit, yet sinister, canals of Venice, weaving a complex philosophical thriller. The naive Prince of a German state is systematically targeted and tormented by a cabal of shadowy, mysterious figures who manipulate him through a relentless series of seemingly supernatural apparitions and prophecies. Schiller masterfully explores the ambiguity: Are these terrifying events genuinely spectral, or are they elaborate, calculated hoaxes devised by a powerful secret society seeking to control the Prince's destiny? This novel is a profound examination of credulity versus reason, political corruption, and the terrifying power of deception.
