The Gipsy Prophecy

Bram Stoker

First published 1914
Type Short Fiction
Length Short Story

Fortune tellers predict that a man will end up murdering his wife but the couple refuses to believe it.


Stoker's widow and literary executor noted in 1914 that this story and others had been "published in English and American periodicals", in her Preface (see) to the posthumous collection Dracula's Guest and Other Weird Stories (Routledge, 1914).

As of May 2019, the 1914 collection is the earliest publication known at The FictionMags Index.
