The Mysteries of Udolpho Volume 4, Chapter 4 Summary

  • The next night, Dorothée shows up to take Em to the Marchioness's chambers. Sounds like our idea of fun.
  • Dorothée shows Em where she last saw the Marchioness's corpse, resting on an elaborate bed.
  • She also shows Em a picture of her late mistress, who really is the spitting image of Em.
  • Em thinks she sees a figure glide by, but she figures it's a mistake. Right?
  • The ladies see a human figure rising by the bed. No mistake, this place is haunted!
  • There's lots of screaming and flailing about, but Dorothée and Em get the heck out of dodge.
