Mated From The Morgue: A Tale Of The Second Empire is a novel written by John Augustus O'Shea and published in 1889. The story takes place during the Second French Empire and follows the life of a young man named Victor, who is working as an assistant in a morgue. One day, he discovers a beautiful woman's body and becomes obsessed with her. He decides to bring her back to life using an experimental method and succeeds, but soon realizes that she is not human. The woman, named Zara, is actually a vampire who has been asleep for centuries. Victor becomes her servant and lover, but their relationship is complicated by the fact that Zara is a vampire and must feed on blood to survive. The novel explores themes of love, obsession, and the dangers of playing with the supernatural. With its Gothic atmosphere and dark themes, Mated From The Morgue is a thrilling read for fans of horror and supernatural fiction.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
