About “Thrawn Janet”
"Thrawn Janet" is an 1881 short story written in Scots by Robert Louis Stevenson. He wrote the story during the summer of 1881 while staying at the Kinnaird Cottage in Kinnaird, a hamlet near Pitlochry, with his parents and wife. Stevenson read the story to his wife, Fanny, who said it sent a "cauld grue" along her bones and "fair frightened" Stevenson himself. The story was first published in the October 1881 issue of the Cornhill Magazine. It is a dark tale involving satanic possession. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
