”Den kröp upp på min hals, fruktansvärt långsamt, några millimeter i taget och dess tyngd tvingade mig att spänna mina ryggmuskler. Den nådde till hakan, den snuddade vid mina läppar – och jag stod stilla och uthärdade allt medan den täckte mitt ansikte med sin enorma, slemmiga, stinkande kropp och omfamnade mig med sina otaliga ben. Skräcken gjorde mig galen.” Från mörka och mystiska Egypten kommer Skalbaggen, en grotesk varelse ”skapad varken av Gud eller människa”, en hamnskiftare besatt av att söka hämnd för ett brott som fordom begicks mot dess avgudadyrkare. I en oförsonlig jakt genom London förföljer den utan nåd sina offer och ingen tycks fredad från dess hypnotiska, onda makt. Richard Marshs (1857–1915) sällsamma, fängslande och originella roman, som när den gavs ut faktiskt sålde bättre än Dracula, är en skräckklassiker: en ockult detektivberättelse och ett fin de siècle-melodrama som skrämde slag på det senviktorianska samhällets läsare. Här presenteras "Skalbaggen" (1897) i oförkortat skick, översatt av KG Johansson som också har skrivit en informativ efterskrift till utgåvan och försett den med oumbärliga kommentarer.
