Collier's story chaser is a toxic drink designed to kill women who smother the hero with too much love and possession. The original drink was a love potion he bought so that she fell in love with him.

Collier is talking about love and marriage. He is cynical about these subjects, probably due to his personal experience.

John Collier's short story "The Chaser" has the theme of doing stupid things when people are in love. This is shown at the beginning of the story, and Alan Austin goes into a ghostly building. He greeted an old man who entered the apartment and looked forward to his rocking chair. First, Allen asked: "Do you really sell drugs of love?" This shows what Allen originally offered for the elderly. It also means that he is interested in buying a love potion that may have been given to someone. Next, the old man said, "... you will be her only concern of her life," Alain cried: "When it is wonderful!" When Allen heard the old man say, I was very happy that I planned to give love.
