Das alte ritterliche Geschlecht der Westerburgs wird seit vielen Generationen von einem kleinern, zwergenhaften Hausgeist begleitet, dem "Petermännchen". Niemand kennt seine Herkunft, niemand seine Bestimmung. Als der letzte Erbe dieses Geschlechts, Rudolph, nähere Bekanntschaft mit dem Petermännchen macht, führt der Hausgeist den jungen Ritter zunächst unmerklich und unter dem Vorwand der Tugend, dann immer offensichtlicher, zum Bösen; von Laster zu Laster, von Verbrechen zu Verbrechen, und letztlich dem unvermeidlichen Abgrund entgegen. Warum dies geschieht? Dies ist in der Herkunft und dem bestimmten Schicksal des Hausgeistes selbst zu suchen... Eine wahrhaft diabolische Geschichte!Dieser Klassiker der Schauerromantik war seinerzeit einer der meistgelesenen im deutschsprachigen Raum.
