%X The prolific English detective and crime fiction writer Agatha Christie¡¯s A Caribbean Mystery (1964) has an outstanding status due to the number of controversies involved in the plotline, the complicated relationships between characters and the exotic setting in a supposedly colonial background. Moreover, the novel draws attention due to the tension that keeps rising until the end in addition to the fearful environment. In fact, the psychological response of the characters in the novel is worth studying due to the sense of uncanny. Apparently, only Miss Marple is capable of achieving the rationalising process that includes the familiar and the strange. The psychological understanding of the uncanny seems to be highly related to the fictional account in Christie¡¯s novel. Therefore, this work aims to analyse Christie¡¯s A Caribbean Mystery in the light of the sense of the uncanny to explain the response of the characters
