Synopsis for "The Wish"

Reprint of the 1st story from
Spellbound #24
(originally printed as The Frightened Man)

After a fortune teller relates to a young man he will meet his true love as an old man and she a young woman he asks if anything can be done. The fortune teller directs him to a painter who can provide him with a Dorian Gray-type portrait. The years pass and he courts the young lady as he appears a young man, but the girl's parents are suspicious of his refusing their entrance into the room where he keeps the portrait that betrays his true age. He agrees to let them inside the room in three days and he locates the painter. He offers the painter a large sum to paint over the portrait as a young man, which he does. However, the painter neglects to mention that the man's true age is now manifested on his body as a result.
