Description
A ghostly, translucid hand reaches for a letter lying on a table while the body it belongs to is visible only up to the collar, the head remaining off-frame.
The caption, in this French translation of The Haunted and the Haunters, reads as follows: Selon toute apparence, c’était une main de chair et de sang comme la mienne.
