"Nightmare Abbey" is a satirical novel by Thomas Love Peacock that delves into the eccentricities of the Romantic era and provides a witty critique of the intellectual and cultural movements of the time. Set in the gloomy and decaying Nightmare Abbey, the story follows the protagonist, Christopher Glowry, and his interactions with a cast of idiosyncratic characters. The novel begins with the introduction of Christopher Glowry, a melancholic and disillusioned individual who has isolated himself in the desolate Nightmare Abbey. Haunted by his own disillusionment with life, he finds solace in his cynical and pessimistic philosophies. Christopher's gloomy existence is interrupted by the arrival of his lively and eccentric son, Scythrop, who brings a fresh burst of energy to the desolate abbey.
