Miss Christina (Romanian: Domnișoara Christina) is a 1936 novella by the Romanian writer Mircea Eliade. It tells the story of the attraction between a female strigoi—an undead human from Romanian folklore—and a young man who visits the house she haunts. An English translation by Ana Cartianu was published in 1992 as part of the Eliade omnibus volume Mystic Stories.[1] The novella has been the basis for two Romanian film adaptations with the same title.[2][3]
