"Der Diamant des Geisterkönigs" by Ferdinand Raimund is a magical farce with songs composed in 1824. When magician Zephises dies, his son Eduard must reach the spirit king Longimanus's palace to claim his inheritance. Eduard faces supernatural trials, including climbing a mountain without looking back, where those who turn are transformed into animals.
