About This Novel
Works by the famous French writer Jules Verne. In the Transylvania region of the Austrian Empire, the shepherd Fuliko discovered that the Carpathian Castle, which had been deserted for many years, suddenly started to smoke again. He screamed in terror. Fuliko was regarded as a wizard. People said he had the ability to summon gods and monsters. Did he see monsters? The author of this book uses amazingly rich imagination and unique artistic conception to describe an ancient castle that is both mysterious and terrifying. The author reveals the mystery of the castle by describing Franz, a legendary figure who bravely explores the castle. This story is full of romantic legend, but it is by no means a boring fabrication. The owner of the castle is an eccentric old man. When he was young, he liked a popular soprano singer very much, but this singer fell in love with the young Count Franz. During the singer's farewell performance, the terrifying face of the owner of the castle scared the poor singer to death. However, the lonely owner of the castle thought that Franz had killed his dream lover and took revenge on him. When Franz passed by the Carpathian Castle, he heard the familiar singing voice of the dead female singer coming from inside. He thought that his lover was still alive, but was imprisoned inside by the owner of the castle. So he crazily sneaked into the castle. After a series of adventures, he discovered that all the supernatural phenomena in the mysterious castle were the magical effects of electricity, and the voice and image of the singer's lover were also illusions made of electricity. Although he solved the mystery of the castle, he became insane and spent a sad life in his memories.
