Powoli zagospodarowuje się, buduje dom, uprawia zboże, oswaja kozy i papugę, wytwarza naczynia. W przetrwaniu pomagają mu znalezione przedmioty z innego rozbitego statku.

Agli inizi del ‘700 Daniel Defoe dedica molto tempo alle indagini critiche sull’'cculto, rivelando un grande allineamento con lo spirito dei suoi tempi. Nei presenti racconti, l'autore dismette le vesti di romanziere e, ricorrendo al metodo deduttivo tipico del giornalismo, tenta di ricostruire quanto di vero si celi alla base di vari aneddoti su fantasmi, entità demoniache ed angeli.

Il giovane e ingenuo Thomas Dawson racconta ad un gentiluomo della presunta apparizione del Diavolo a cui avrebbe assistito. In questo brevissimo racconto, col ritmo estremamente incalzante di un dialogo diretto, Daniel Defoe mette in luce - non senza ironia - le contraddizioni alla base di simili resoconti, anticipando di ben due secoli e mezzo la moderna "psicologia dell’insolito".

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.
