A man who keeps a severed hand attached to the wall of his drawing room is found mysteriously strangled at the same time that the hand disappears.
Not just another supernatural horror story but a story within a story. In this case, the story is narrated by a policeman about the strange events involving a man who kept a human hand hanging on his room wall. He was found murdered with a finger in his mouth and the hand missing. The hand later shows up on the man’s grave and a finger was found missing. The policeman offers a logical explanation which is more suited to him and more real in the modern world but is rejected by the listeners in preference of the supernatural illusion of the whole story.
With this ends the Maupassant's story collection review. Hope to read more of his work in the coming days.
The next one week is for my favorite author L M Montgomery. Woohoo! Back to cherry blossoms and green pastures.
