The story obviously culminates on the medieval ballad centring round the stories of the demon lovers who used to abduct their lovers on the ground of infidelity after their death but this mere fact does not label “The Demon Lover” as a simple supernatural story. At the beginning of the story itself, the readers are introduced to Mrs Drover, the protagonist of the story who is a bit clumsy in her appearance and confused with the dates of the war. Secondly, she visits her old home in London which was being evacuated for the reason of bombing by Germany. Mrs Drover is shown threatened by some unknown fear and seems to be chased with the brunt of the memory associated with her past life which gets evoked after visiting her old home.
