Satan's garden by E. Hoffmann Price
"Satan's Garden" by E. Hoffmann Price is a thrilling adventure novel crafted in the early 20th century. Set in the mystical surroundings of Bayonne, it intertwines elements of occultism, supernatural horror, and intrigue. The story begins with Glenn Farrell and his companion Pierre d'Artois attempting to uncover the invisible forces tormenting a beautiful girl named Antoinette, who is caught in a terrifying cycle of beatings connected to an unseen evil rooted in
a mysterious garden, hinting at a connection to hasheesh-eaters. The opening of the narrative introduces the characters of Glenn Farrell and Pierre d'Artois, who are deep in contemplation about the strange occurrences surrounding Antoinette. As they monitor her restless nights, they are drawn into escalating supernatural events that culminate in a sense of dread, including the horrific sight of Antoinette suffering from invisible lashings. Struggling to comprehend the forces at play, they uncover hints of an ancient evil tied to the lore of the "Assassins" and the dark magic of a veiled master. The gripping atmosphere sets the stage for a clash between rationality and the inexplicable, suggesting a larger conspiracy as they resolve to protect Antoinette from her nightly torment and the overarching terror of "Satan's Garden."
