The Motion Demon — Stefan Grabiński

The Motion Demon creates a genre of "railway horror." Trains, stations, and rails become spaces of the supernatural. Motion itself harbors a demonic force.

Grabiński, a Lviv-based writer of the early 20th century, was forgotten for decades and rediscovered in the late 20th century. He is called the "Polish Lovecraft" for his unique style of mystical realism.
