The Snake's Pass

Bram Stoker

First published November 1890
Type Novel


"The Gombeen Man", chapter 3, was published a year before the novel as a short story in The People, a London Sunday newspaper. The novel "centers on the legend of Saint Patrick defeating the King of the Snakes in Ireland." --Wikipedia

No speculative element in this novel, which is a mainstream romance. The closest it gets to it corresponds to the belief of some characters in an old Irish legend, and the description of some nightmares.
