B. J. Harrison Reads The Mummy's Curse (EN)

In "Lost in a Pyramid; or The Mummy's Curse" by Louisa May Alcott, Paul Forsyth and his fiancée Evelyn discover that taking souvenirs back from ancient places may not be the best idea. Paul returns from an expedition to Egypt with his risk-taking colleague Professor Niles with a box of seeds, which Evelyn takes a liking to. The problem is, the seeds were collected from the grave of a sorceress, who has vowed to take revenge on anyone disturbing her resting place. This classic ghost story from the late 19th century is one of the first mummy's curse narratives, providing plenty of otherworldly twists for the adventure-seeking reader.
