  First published in December 1910 in The Tramp, The Singular Death of Morton by Algernon Blackwood is a chilling supernatural tale of mystery, obsession, and vampiric horror. 
  While travelling through the mountains, two friends encounter a mysterious young woman at a deserted chalet. Something about her leaves one of them deeply unsettled, but neither man could possibly imagine the horror that awaits them after nightfall. 
  When Morton is found dead under mysterious circumstances, strange evidence begins to emerge—including a tiny wound in his throat, a disturbing trail of blood, and rumours of a vampire connected to the abandoned chalet. 
  Blending atmospheric horror, supernatural mystery, vampire folklore, and mounting dread, Blackwood creates a haunting tale in which the line between superstition and terrifying reality becomes increasingly difficult to distinguish.
