Hidden Narratives

Hidden Narratives (Récits Occultes) by Vera Kryzhanovskaia (dictated by the spirit Count J.W. Rochester) is a mesmerizing collection of mediumistic short stories that explore the hidden dimensions of the human soul. Unlike traditional novels, this anthology presents a series of standalone tales that span diverse historical eras and ethereal realms, blending gothic horror, dark romance, and profound esoteric philosophy to illustrate the laws of karma and reincarnation.

• The Bride of Amenti: Set in ancient Egypt, a dark magician summons an undead entity to seduce his rival in love. It is a terrifying tale of spiritual obsession that proves only unconditional forgiveness can break the chains of dark magic.
• The Urn: A modern 19th-century sculptor opens a cursed Roman funerary urn, unleashing a vengeful spirit. As past-life memories of murder and jealousy in ancient Rome resurface, the artist must face a terrifying karmic retribution.
• The Iron Knight: In Renaissance Italy, a betrayed husband is poisoned and sealed alive inside a suit of armor. When he awakens from his alchemical slumber 150 years later, he discovers that divine justice has reincarnated his betrayers within his own family line.
• Satan and the Genie: A pure celestial messenger volunteers to descend to Earth to save humanity. Taken on a guided tour of earthly empires by Satan, the Genie witnesses the horrors of war, greed, and hypocrisy, ultimately experiencing the tragic fate of all true spiritual messengers at the hands of humanity.
• Death and Life: A sick child strikes a deal with Death to live as an immortal water spirit (undine), only to learn over centuries of empty existence that a soul can only truly evolve through selfless sacrifice.
• Love: A philosophical journey following the soul Psyche as she explores the temples of Heaven, discovering that true love is not an intoxicating passion, but a profound commitment to charity and forgiveness.
