Go back in time with this Industrial Revolution horror short story by John Bills. This month, the guys take on a two-pronged prompt: inventions of the Industrial Revolution and, in honor of October, the horror genre.
John transports to the era of telegraphy. His Lovecraftian monstrous tale of a young telegraph worker at Poldhu Point on the night of the first TransAtlantic telegraph signal chills us to the bone. It raises spectral reflections about very human fears of diving headlong into new technologies without a full understanding of how the natural world may respond.
