The Terror is a horror novel written by Arthur Machen, first published in 1917. The story follows a young man named Edward Darnell, who inherits an old mansion in Wales from his late uncle. As he begins to explore the house and its surrounding countryside, he discovers a series of strange and unsettling events that seem to be linked to a mysterious figure known as the Terror. As Darnell delves deeper into the history of the house and the local area, he uncovers a dark and terrifying secret that threatens his very existence.The novel is known for its vivid descriptions of the Welsh landscape and its eerie atmosphere, which creates a sense of dread and unease throughout the story. Machen's writing style is highly atmospheric and evocative, drawing on his own experiences and knowledge of Welsh folklore and mythology to create a haunting and unforgettable tale of horror.Overall, The Terror is a classic example of early 20th century horror fiction, and remains a popular and influential work in the genre to this day. It is a must-read for fans of Gothic horror, supernatural fiction, and classic literature.The wife of the dead man, Joseph Cradock, finding her husband lying motionless on the dewy turf, went white and stricken up the path to the village and got two men who bore the body to the farm. Lewis was sent for, and knew at once when he saw the dead man that he had perished in the way that the little Roberts boy had perished--whatever that awful way might be.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
