This book is the collection of two books: "These Burdened Rooms" and "Trapped" which together, tell the whole story of Alistair McMist. You are about to open a curious and unsettling cabinet of wonders. The items within are stories, each one a relic of a life touched by the peculiar, the macabre, and the inexplicable. The first hand you will meet here is that of Dr. Alistair McMist. A man of science and, it was said, a collector of singular artifacts. He had .. some gifts for finding things that did not wish to be found, and a habit of facilitating their passage into the world. He presented himself as a curator, a mere chronicler of strange events. They are stories of doors that should never have been opened, and the burdens left behind. For a time, this was his entire world—a gallery of discrete horrors, each contained within its own four walls. But a collection can have a shape, a pattern that only becomes clear from a distance. A single key can unlock a door, but a series of doors, once opened, may reveal a corridor. And a corridor, when followed, can lead to a foundation far darker and more ancient than any of the rooms it connects. This volume contains both the rooms and the corridor. It begins with the tales Dr. McMist believed he understood, and ends with the one that understood him. Listen, then, to these echoes. But be warned: some stories are not merely to be heard. They are doors in themselves. And once you cross this particular threshold, you will find that the most terrible secrets are not those hidden in a locked room, or a forgotten attic. They are the ones that walk beside us, casting a familiar shadow. Turn the page, if you dare. But remember: certain discoveries, once made, cannot be undone.
