Crooken Sands by Bram Stoker

A proud Englishman vacations on the Scottish coast but refuses to adopt local customs—especially the wearing of kilts. When he finally dons traditional garb for a social event, strange things begin to happen, and he is mistaken for someone long dead. As he wanders the eerie sands, he’s drawn into a fate tied to ancient superstition and mistaken identity. The plot moves toward a tragic and ghostly end. A haunting tale of pride, tradition, and the sea’s unforgiving pull.
