The Hexer from Salem – When the Master Died 
Episode 1

There was something disturbing about this mist. The ship’s crusty hull seemed to vanish into the gray mass. An odd odor wafted up from the water’s surface. I leaned my hands on the railing, bent forward and tried to catch just a hint of the water. But the mist was too thick.

What is The Hexer from Salem?
The Hexer from Salem, a novel series in the vein of H.P. Lovecraft, was created and written almost entirely by Wolfgang Hohlbein. The epic began in 1984 in a pulp-fiction series: Ghost-Thrillers from Bastei Publishing and later as a stand-alone series under The Hexer from Salem, before it finally became available in paperback and collectors editions.
The story takes place primarily in nineteenth century London, following the chilling adventures of The Hexer, Robert Craven and, later on, his son as they encounter the Great Olds – godlike creatures hostile to humans – and their representatives on earth.
