The Necken: A Play In Two Acts is a dramatic work written by Elizabeth Green Crane and originally published in 1913. The play centers around the titular character, the Necken, a supernatural being from Scandinavian folklore who is known for luring people to their deaths in bodies of water. The story follows a group of characters who become entangled with the Necken, including a young woman who becomes enamored with him and a group of fishermen who seek to capture him. Throughout the play, themes of love, temptation, and the dangers of the unknown are explored. This work offers a fascinating glimpse into early 20th century theatrical productions and the enduring appeal of folklore and mythology in storytelling.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
