LiteratureThe Horror in the Burying-Ground
The Horror in the Burying-Ground reconstructs a double funeral through the unsettling conversations of a declining village. An undertaker’s experimental fluid, an abusive brother and warnings from a repeatedly dismissed witness raise the possibility that two men were buried conscious. The lasting horror depends as much on what the community refuses to investigate as on what may have returned from its cemetery.
