Frank Wedekind (1864-1918) was the most controversial dramatist of his age. Most of his work focuses on the ubiquity and inevitably corrupting influence of sexual attraction. His most famous plays are the two that depict the rise, fall, and eventual gruesome death of the vampish Lulu, who, in Wedekind’s presentation, became a ghastly parody of Goethe’s “Eternal Feminine”. The first of the plays is Earth Spirit, in which Lulu marries and survives three husbands, only to face prosecution for the shooting of the third.

The Wild Duck (Vilanden) is a tragedy with comic episodes. Ibsen himself characterized the play as a tragicomedy. It depicts ordinary life realistically instead of romantically and sentimentally, a revolutionary concept in Ibsen's time. The play is now generally acknowledged as one of Ibsen's supreme accomplishments.

Sully thought facing down his past would be the hardest part of this case. He was wrong. Now he’s racing against time—and a dark spirit from his childhood—to save his brother. Just before Christmas, Sully and Dez are summoned to help a young woman plagued by a frightening ghost in her new home. But this isn’t like any other job. This home has been built on the lot that once held the residence of the Blake family—the house Sully barely escaped with his life nearly twenty years ago. Sully connects nothing good with the place, his memories of abuse still vivid and barely held in check.
