A Classic Uncanny Mystery | The Door in the Wall | H.G. Wells | Weird Fiction | Audiobook

This uncanny tale of a hidden paradise is an eerie Edwardian mystery by H. G. Wells, one of the founding fathers of classic Science Fiction. Hidden behind a mysterious green door in a mundane London wall lies an enchanting, dreamlike refuge. This masterclass in atmospheric mystery and speculative fiction is perfect for fans of Neil Gaiman’s “Smoke and Mirrors” and “Neverwhere”. “The Door in the Wall” by Herbert George Wells is a classic early example of Weird Fiction and will appeal to readers of Algernon Blackwood, Arthur Machen and Lord Dunsany. While H. G. Wells is famous for science fiction masterpieces such as The Invisible Man, The Time Machine, The War of the Worlds, and The Island of Doctor Moreau, this psychological fantasy is a beautiful, melancholic, and unsettling short story.
