A child's memory, a shadowed path, a glimpse of something that should not be. In A Vignette, M. R. James offers a final brushstroke of quiet terror—intimate, elusive, and disquietingly real. This short, unsettling piece lingers like a half-remembered dream, evoking the moment when the everyday slips into the uncanny. With masterful restraint and emotional undercurrent, James reminds us that the most chilling hauntings are those born in the mind—and never truly forgotten.

James once again proves himself a master of quiet horror—where the chill creeps not from the cold, but from something far older, and far less forgiving. Subtle, strange, and unsettling, this is a tale that whispers its secrets, if you dare to listen. Perfect for a solitary listen by candlelight, just as midnight strikes.

That which you do not fear. Can’t hurt you. At least that’s what my momma used to say. I grew up on farms all around the country. Farms that my father could flip around for a profit. But this one was different. It has a grasp on us. On my family. I knew the moment my father named it “The Crow Farm,” we wouldn’t be leaving. At least… not alive. R’nan is an old place, the land much older. Stained and tainted. This house, this farm has a story to tell, and the thing telling it is Charlie. A silhouette, shrouded in mist. And if you’re not careful, and don't pay attention… Well.

A chave, de Machado de Assis, tem seu enredo devidamente circunscrito no tempo: a história começa em 7 de outubro de 1861. Os banhos de mar era então uma realidade no Rio de Janeiro e a personagem central do conto, Marcelina, tem neles sua entrada na narrativa. De forma torta: apesar de ser excelente nadadora, quase se afoga, sendo salva pelo pretendente Luís Bastinhos. Ela, no entanto, considera outros rapazes – quem teria a chave para abrir seu coração? É ler o conto e deliciar-se com a ironia machadiana aí tão presente!

No conto Almas agradecidas, Machado de Assis se mostra em sua fase menos irônica, ainda mais próximo aos cânones românticos.

Cada vez mais próximos, trocam confidências, e nelas Oliveira conta ao amigo de sua paixão por Cecília, filha do comendador Vasconcelos, bem como de sua enorme timidez. Magalhães se dispõe a ajudá-lo, visitando Cecília para falar bem do amigo. Mas então... É ver para descobrir o resultado dessa intervenção!
