Fiction

In a world where the boundaries of reality are constantly tested, Fitz-James O'Brien’s "What Was It?" presents a chilling tale that delves into the unknown, where the unseen can become terrifyingly real.

Set in a mysterious boarding house in the heart of 19th-century New York, a group of residents decides to investigate the house’s eerie reputation. Among them is Harry, who soon finds himself at the center of a nightmarish encounter. In the dead of night, as shadows loom and silence reigns, he is seized by an invisible force, a creature that defies explanation and challenges the very fabric of human understanding.

As Harry struggles to comprehend the entity that has invaded his world, fear grips the household. With the creature restrained but still unseen, the inhabitants grapple with questions that threaten their sanity. What is this creature? Where did it come from? And what does it want?

"What Was It?" is a masterful exploration of suspense and terror, combining elements of science fiction and the supernatural. O’Brien’s story invites readers to ponder the limits of perception and the mysteries that lie just beyond the visible world. With its gripping narrative and evocative atmosphere, this tale of horror and intrigue will leave you questioning what lurks in the shadows.

Enter a story where the impossible becomes reality, and brace yourself for a journey into the depths of fear and the unknown. "What Was It?" will captivate your imagination and haunt your dreams long after the last page is turned.
