The Other Bed

Edward Frederic Benson (1867 – 1940) was an English novelist, biographer, memoirist, archaeologist and short story writer, best known as the true master of the gothic ghost story.

There are two beds in the room and even on the first night, the weary traveller develops an inexplicable horror of one of these beds.

As the week goes on, the other bed reveals its true horror...
