description: Haven't we all thrilled to a stirring tale of mysterious happenings that defy rational explanation? Occultists have long believed that supernatural powers do exist, whether they act for good - or evil. Most of us have experienced eerie and unnatural phenomena at one time or another. Such experiences make us realize that forces which we cannot comprehend may operate in our universe. They convince us that, as Hamlet said, "There are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of." The tales in this collection grip the spine and provide the reader with a chilling awe of the unknown.Contents"The Mark of the Beast" by Rudyard Kipling"Secret Worship" by Algernon Blackwood"The People of Pan" by Henry S.
