Black Magic: a Tale of the Rise and Fall of the Antichrist by Marjorie Bowen (1885 - 1952)

Witches, spells, ghosts, pacts with the Devil, occult rituals, love triangles, popes and the Anti-Christ are some of the ingredients of this chilling early horror work (set in the middle-ages) by Marjorie Bowen that some consider to be the ultimate Gothic Novel. With enough suspenseful plot twists and turns to keep most listeners on edge guessing till the very end. (Summary by kadath)
