The Crystal Man by Edward Page Mitchell - Before H.G. Wells imagined the Invisible Man, Edward Page Mitchell made him vanish. Discover the original tale of unseen horror and scientific wonder—The Crystal Man.

Edward Page Mitchell (1852–1927) was a pioneering yet often overlooked figure in early science fiction. A journalist, editor, and short story writer, Mitchell worked for The New York Sun, where many of his speculative tales first appeared anonymously in the late 19th century. His work, rediscovered decades later, revealed astonishing foresight—anticipating concepts like invisibility, faster-than-light travel, time machines, artificial intelligence, and even teleportation, all before these ideas were popularized by H.G. Wells or Jules Verne.

Mitchell never collected his stories in his lifetime and published them without fanfare, contributing to his obscurity. But modern scholars now recognize him as one of the founding voices of American science fiction. His stories, including The Crystal Man, The Tachypomp, and The Man Without a Body, blend scientific imagination with a journalistic touch, often exploring the ethical and emotional consequences of advanced technology.

Though largely forgotten in his era, Edward Page Mitchell’s legacy lives on as a visionary who helped shape the genre before it even had a name.
