Daniel Defoe, grande appassionato di misteri, ci racconta qui di un evento apparentemente sovrannaturale, che avrebbe avuto per protagonista una coppia inglese. Il marito, patologicamente geloso, perseguita la moglie con offese e percosse, esasperando lei, i famigliari e gli amici che desidererebbero per loro un po' di pace.

Originariamente incluso in "The History And Reality Of Apparitions" (1727), "Il fantasma accusatore" riporta un avvenimento bizzarro, della cui veridicità nemmeno Defoe è sicuro. In occasione di un processo per omicidio, l’imputato - che sembrerebbe sul punto di venire assolto per mancanza di prove - assiste d'improvviso ad un’apparizione inquietante, che lo costringerà a confessare il misfatto.
