Driving home from a country visit on a July evening, a doctor meets a man on the dark road near Stony Creek: a strange, courteous stranger who speaks of hypnotism and of the power of one mind to govern another’s senses entirely.
What follows is a confusion the doctor cannot untangle. A carriage and horses that may never have existed. A journey taken and not taken. And later, in San Francisco, a playbill advertising a performance by a famous mesmerist, and a recognition that forces him to ask how much of that night was ever really there.
First published in Can Such Things Be? (1893), The Realm of the Unreal is a sly, disquieting tale by Ambrose Bierce about hypnosis, illusion and the thin edge between perception and reality, told with the dry irony that made him the master of American dark fiction.
Listen to the complete, unabridged audiobook of this classic weird tale.
