A Dream of Red Hands by Bram Stoker

A man is haunted by recurring dreams of blood-stained hands and a terrible guilt he cannot shake. As he falls into despair, he confesses to a long-hidden crime, believing his dreams are divine punishment. The plot builds gradually toward a moment of moral reckoning and spiritual release. Stoker intertwines themes of justice, remorse, and supernatural judgment. It’s a grim and introspective story about how the past can haunt the soul.
