Some doors should never be opened. This story shows why.

First published in 1894, The Great God Pan by Arthur Machen shocked Victorian readers with its daring blend of science, mysticism, and terror. Today it is hailed as a masterpiece of supernatural fiction and one of the most influential horror stories ever written.

The tale begins with an experiment gone wrong -- an attempt to lift the veil between the human mind and the unseen world. What follows is a chilling chain of events marked by madness, corruption, and inexplicable deaths, all linked to a mysterious woman named Helen Vaughan. At the center lies the terrifying presence of the ancient god Pan, symbol of forbidden knowledge and primal chaos.

Praised by writers such as H. P. Lovecraft and Stephen King, this novella is often called one of the scariest stories in English literature. Machen's haunting prose and unsettling vision laid the groundwork for modern horror, from cosmic dread to psychological terror.
