概要
In a quiet boarding house on Twenty-Sixth Street in mid-19th-century New York, a group of rational, educated men amuse themselves with ghost stories—until one of them is violently attacked in the dark by something that cannot be seen.
What Was It? is a landmark work of supernatural fiction in which terror arises not from apparitions or superstition, but from direct physical evidence of the impossible. The unseen assailant breathes, struggles, bleeds, and can be bound—yet remains utterly invisible. What begins as a nightmare becomes a methodical investigation, as science, logic, and courage are brought to bear on a phenomenon that refuses explanation.
Fitz-James O’Brien’s chilling tale stands at the crossroads of ghost story, psychological horror, and early science fiction. Calmly narrated and rigorously observed, it explores the limits of perception, the arrogance of certainty, and the profound unease that emerges when reason confirms what the mind cannot accept.
Read by Tony J. Martin, this atmospheric recording preserves the story’s measured intelligence and mounting dread, drawing the listener into a world where the most terrifying thing is not what we imagine—but what we can touch, restrain, and never truly see.
