"John Silence, Physician Extraordinary" by Algernon Blackwood is a collection of supernatural tales written in the early 20th century. The narrative revolves around Dr. John Silence, a unique physician who specializes in psychical afflictions and offers his unconventional healing methods to those suffering from mysterious emotional states. His cases often involve elements of the occult, exploring the deeper realms of the human psyche and the supernatural. The opening portion introduces Dr. Silence as he engages in a conversation with a Swedish lady, Mrs. Sivendson, regarding a case that intrigues him—a young author named Felix Pender, who has suddenly lost his sense of humor and is plagued by an inexplicable terror. The doctor learns about Pender's haunting experiences, which began after an experiment with a drug that has connected him with dark, psychical forces. This leads Silence to the conclusion that he must investigate this curious affliction further, setting the stage for a deeper exploration into psychical invasions and the potential dangers that lurk beyond the veil of ordinary perception.
