<p>On a freezing February day a stranger emerges from out of the gray to request a room at a local provincial inn. Who is this out-of-season traveler? More confounding is the thick mask of bandages obscuring his face. Why does he disguise himself in this manner and keep himself hidden away in his room?</p> <p>Aroused by trepidation and curiosity the local villagers bring it upon themselves to find the answers. What they discover is a man trapped in a terror of his own creation and a chilling reflection of the unsolvable mysteries of their own souls.</p> <p>In the tradition of Mary Shelley’s <em>Frankenstein</em> comes another undisputed classic of science fiction and horror to stir the imagination and conscience. It is <span>considered by many to be one of the greatest science fiction horror stories ever written.</span></p></P><P>A Blackstone Audio production.</P>
