'Can Such Things Be?' Summary
In Bierce's chilling tales, ghosts wander the earth, seeking vengeance or redemption. Apparitions appear and vanish, leaving behind a trail of mystery and uncertainty. Strange occurrences defy rational explanation, blurring the lines between reality and illusion. Through these haunting narratives, Bierce challenges our assumptions about the world and the nature of existence itself.Book Details
