There are places where the common world wears thin.

In The Arthur Machen Library, the strange and visionary works of Arthur Machen are read in full: tales of ancient powers, hidden rites, haunted landscapes, forbidden knowledge, and the terrible beauty that lies just beyond ordinary sight.

Enter old woods, forgotten streets, lonely hills and secret chambers, where the modern world gives way to something older, darker, and more wonderful.

Listen closely. The veil is not so thick as it seems.Public domain

    The Terror: A Mystery Chapter I - The Coming of the Terror
    Sep 27 2026
    In which the slow, grim stillness of war’s long stalemate is delicately pierced by whispers of strange and secret misfortunes, veiled from the public eye by an almost morbid censorship.

    In which a weary dreamer, half-wakened from slumber on a stormy night, drifts through a landscape of memory and longing, recalling the sweet innocence of boyhood, the wild beauty of the hills, and the tender first stirrings of desire that shimmer like a distant, elusive light. As the tempest rages without, he contemplates the toils and triumphs of his craft, wandering the shadowed suburbs and ancient lanes, seeking in the faded remnants of time and nature a refuge from the dreariness of modern life and the weary burdens of his soul.

    In which Lucian wrestles with the bitter pangs of creative desolation amid the bleak monotony of a frost-bound London suburb, finding no refuge in solitude or the bustling streets. Haunted by visions both spectral and human, he struggles to reconcile his fierce longing for the great artistic endeavour with a profound estrangement from the common joys of life, his soul torn between desire, despair, and a mysterious invitation to a darker communion.
