Esta dissertação investiga a figura da sereia na literatura fantástica portuguesa do século XIX, com incidência nos contos "A Igreja Profanada", "A Torre Derrocada" e "O Canto da Sereia". Ao longo do trabalho, destacamos a diversidade de representações das sereias e suas transformações. Observa-se que, embora as sereias estejam frequentemente associadas ao canto sedutor e perigoso, estas narrativas abordam a transformação de mulheres em figuras míticas na busca por autonomia e transgressão dos códigos sociais. Para a realização do seu objectivo principal, nesta dissertação apresentam-se diferentes abordagens teóricas sobre o fantástico, necessárias para uma melhor compreensão das narrativas breves acima referidas.
