The Scarlet Night
A man discovers his wife's infatuation with the town's disreputable doctor and refuses her request for a divorce. After being drugged and buried alive in a horrifying plot, he experiences a nightmarish resurrection—only to awaken in a hospital accused of murdering both his wife and the doctor. Published in the early 20th century, this tale of ambiguous reality explores themes of betrayal, psychological torment, and the unreliability of perception, leaving readers uncertain whether the protagonist experienced genuine horror or descended into murderous madness.
