Francis Barrett was an English magician and occultist who led a reclusive life, spending most of his time in an isolated manor house.
Nestled in a hollow and surrounded by a dense forest, the house was hidden from the world.
Little is known about Francis Barrett beyond his authorship of The Magus, a Celestial intelligencer and compendium of occult and magical information.
Over the many years since Francis Barrett disappeared, people have attempted, without success, to find the mysterious house and discover what happened to Mr. Barrett.
No one can be sure what experiments Francis Barrett performed, or what was conjured up, in that house.
Some who have gone searching for the house have never returned.
