Summary: "Nick Carter Stories No. 120, December 26, 1914: An Uncanny Revenge; or, Nick…" is a fictional detective story written in the early 20th century. This installment in the long-running series features Nick Carter, a prominent private detective known for solving thrilling cases.

The opening of the story introduces Nick Carter at a breakfast table with his assistants as they discuss Helga Lund's alarming breakdown during her performance. Ida, Carter's woman assistant, recounts the disturbing incident where Lund appears to be under some mental spell, linked to a man resembling the incarcerated surgeon Grantley.
