A Master of Mysteries Audiobook
Introduction It so happened that the circumstances of fate allowed me to follow my own bent in the choice of a profession. From my earliest youth the weird, the mysterious had an irresistible fascination for me. Having private means, I resolved to follow my unique inclinations, and I am now well known to all my friends as a professional exposer of ghosts, and one who can clear away the mysteries of most haunted houses. Up to the present I have never had cause to regret my choice, but at the same time I cannot too strongly advise any one who thinks of following my example to hesitate before engaging himself in tasks that entail
time, expense, thankless labour, often ridicule, and not seldom great personal danger. To explain, by the application of science, phenomena attributed to spiritual agencies has been the work of my life. I have, naturally, gone through strange difficulties in accomplishing my mission. I propose in these pages to relate the histories of certain queer events, enveloped at first in mystery, and apparently dark with portent, but, nevertheless, when grappled with in the true spirit of science, capable of explanation.

About The Book The author, a professional exposer of ghosts, introduces himself and his profession. He explains that he has always been fascinated by the weird and mysterious, and that he has dedicated his life to explaining phenomena attributed to spiritual agencies by the application of science. He warns potential followers that the work can be difficult, thankless, and often dangerous. The author then proposes to relate the histories of certain queer events that he has investigated. These events were initially shrouded in mystery and dark with portent, but he was able to explain them through science. The introduction is well-written and engaging. The author's enthusiasm for his work is evident, and he does a good job of explaining the challenges and rewards of his profession. The introduction also effectively raises the reader's curiosity about the stories that the author is about to tell.
