İngilizce - İngilizce
A dreamlike state where real and imagined elements are blurred together

It is impossible to convey, in words, any idea of the hideous phantasmagoria of shifting limbs and faces which moved through the evil-smelling twilight of this terrible prison-house.

There are depths in humanity which one cannot explore, as there are mephitic caverns into which one dare not penetrate.
