"No one could begin to describe the cumulative suspense and ultimate horror with which every paragraph abounds" H.P. LOVECRAFT Dr. Raymond's ultimate goal is to devise a way to open man's mind so he may experience all the world has to offer. He calls this, "seeing the great god Pan." After much study of the human mind he devises an experiment which involves minor brain surgery. He performs this experiment on a young woman named Mary, but when she awakes she is terrified and mentally crippled. Years later, the beautiful but sinister-looking Helen Vaughan is reported to have caused a series of mysterious happenings in a small nameless town. The Great God Pan is a classic tale of supernatural horror by the Master of the Macabre, Arthur Machen.
