The Witch of Prague

CHAPTER XX[*] [*] The deeds here recounted are not imaginary
1/42

.

Not very long ago the sacrilege which Unorna attempted was actually committed at night in a Catholic church in London, under circumstances that clearly proved the intention of some person or persons to defile the consecrated wafers.

A case of hypnotic suggestion to the committal of a crime in a convent occurred in Hungary not many years since, with a different object, namely, a daring robbery, but precisely as here described.

A complete account of the case will be found, with authority and evidence, in a pamphlet entitled _Eine experimentale Studie auf dem Gebiete des Hypnotismus_, by Dr.R.von Krafft-Ebing, Professor of Psychiatry and for nervous diseases, in the University of Gratz.

Second Edition, Stuttgart, Ferdinand Enke, 1889.
