The Coming of Abel Behenna is a novella by Bram Stoker that tells the story of a young man named Abel Behenna who returns to his hometown after serving in the military. Upon his return, strange and supernatural events begin to occur, leading the townspeople to believe that Behenna has brought some kind of curse or evil spirit with him. As the story progresses, it becomes clear that Behenna is not responsible for these events, but rather he is a victim of circumstances beyond his control. The novella explores themes of guilt, innocence, and the supernatural, and it is considered one of Stoker's lesser-known works.
