The Spook House

Death awaits them all � A man stares into the deep river swirling beneath him � hands tied, noose around his neck � and waits for the order to end his life. Another is trapped for eternity in a room full of corpses. A cowering woman is strangled in the dead of night. These are just some of the countless victims for whom all hope is lost in Ambrose Bierce�s chilling stories of death, delusion and the supernatural.
