Not in this world. Not ever.
Now, more than twenty years later, when I am asked why in my life I have more often thought upon certain charnel apprehensions and unendurable tortures than upon the free air of heaven, by way of an answer, I recount this story. It is, I do declare, no bugaboo, no mere fanciful tale, as might have been told to Manfred, Lord of the Castle of Otranto, or to the accursed family of Montorio. I can honestly asseverate that there are indeed moments when, even to a sceptical scientific eye, this living world and the sepulchral realm of terror, like an episode of Vathek, appear as one, and man and a grim-faced demon do indeed walk, hand in hand, along the banks of the river Styx.
