Thirteen At Table is a novel written by Hungarian author Maurus Jokai. The story revolves around the wealthy and influential Szilassy family, who are celebrating their annual Christmas dinner. However, the dinner takes an unexpected turn when thirteen people sit down to eat, which is considered to be a bad omen. The family members begin to experience a series of strange and unsettling events, including mysterious deaths and disappearances. As the night progresses, the family must confront their dark secrets and past mistakes, while trying to survive the curse that seems to be haunting them. The novel is a thrilling and suspenseful tale of family drama, mystery, and superstition.Meanwhile Barnabas had hurried to the attic, where several large fragments of iron had been stowed away, and dragging them to a window which overlooked the entrance, he waited until the gang had assembled round the door, and were trying to break in; when lifting an enormous piece with gigantic strength, he dropped it on the heads of the besiegers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
