    Howard Philips Lovecraft was an American writer world-famous for his horror fiction works. He was interested in influence of things of non-human nature on human beings. In his stories the reality that we know is merely a thin insecure cover, and what is hidden below may definitely drive you insane. This is a story of three robbers planning to obtain the treasure of a weird and lonely old but rich man. What remains unknown to them is that the man inspires the whole town with awe. And it’s not his oddly set and colored stones in the yard and talking to glass bottles, what something invisible but perceptible behind this. The three friends hatch out a plan and begin to fulfill it. The story lets its readers dive into the atmosphere of a classic Lovecraftian horror and gives them creeps.A SmartTouch Media production.

    This story coincides with April 30, or May Day’s Eve, when it was held that witches met on the Brocken mountain and kept communion with the Devil. It is named after St. Walburga, and English nun who helped convert Germans to Christianity in the 8th century. Her feast day coincides with an ancient pagan festival, whose rites were intended to give protection against witchcraft. Stoker originally wrote this story to be included in his novel, Dracula, but the editor struck it from the original work. Dracula’s Guest was published posthumously, being the title of a collection of short stories of similar gothic horror.

    Selma Lagerlöf was born in Vaermland, Sweden, in 1858 and enjoyed a long and very successful career as a writer, receiving the Nobel-Price in Literature in 1909. She died in Vaermland in 1940. Invisible Links (Osynliga länkar) is a collection of short stories with an underlying theme about the links that influence and guide people’s actions and lives. It was first published in 1894 and the English translation in 1895. The stories are often set in Lagerloef’s Vaermland, but they also depict legends and history of Sweden, and some have connections to other works by Lagerloef. Invisible Links is a good introduction to the writings of Selma Lagerloef. (Summary by Lars Rolander)
