The Hashish Eater (1857) by Fitz Hugh Ludlow is a semi-autobiographical memoir in which the author recounts his intense and often overwhelming experiences with hashish (a concentrated form of cannabis). Ludlow describes how curiosity leads him to experiment with the drug, which plunges him into vivid hallucinations, ecstatic visions, distortions of time and space, and profound philosophical reflections. As the episodes grow increasingly nightmarish and addictive, the narrative becomes a cautionary tale about the seductive allure and psychological dangers of drug use. The book blends adventure, introspection, and moral warning, making it one of the earliest American works exploring drug-induced states.
