Description

In A Cellar is a gothic horror novella written by Harriet Prescott Spofford. The story follows a young woman named Rosalie, who inherits a large, old house from her deceased uncle. She decides to move in and make it her home, but soon discovers a hidden cellar beneath the house. Despite warnings from the locals to stay away from it, Rosalie becomes increasingly curious about the cellar and eventually ventures down to explore it. What she finds there is a terrifying secret that has been hidden for generations, and she must confront the evil that lies within in order to save herself and those she loves. The story is filled with suspense, mystery, and horror, and explores themes of family secrets, betrayal, and the supernatural. Spofford's vivid descriptions and atmospheric writing style create a chilling and memorable reading experience.Why not continue with my coffee in the morning, my kings and cabinets and national chess at noon, my opera at night, and let the poor devil go? Why, but that justice is brought home to every member of society, -- that naked duty requires no shirking of such responsibility, -- that, had I failed here, the crime might, with reason, lie at my door and multiply, the criminal increase himself?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
