Samenvatting

“The Great God Pan” by Arthur Machen, published in 1894, blends horror and fantasy. The story centers on a dangerous experiment that leaves a young woman able to perceive the supernatural presence of Pan, with serious and lasting effects. Much later, the beautiful but unsettling Helen Vaughan appears and is associated with mysterious deaths and suicides. As the investigations proceed, the past begins to reveal itself, gradually connecting Helen Vaughan to her troubling origins and to the failed experiment that set these events in motion.
