“The Horror of the Heights”
Tales of Terror and Mystery
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
| Abstract: A few abandoned items, which include a pair of broken binoculars and a notebook, are found by a farmhand. The notebook has some macabre commentary, but is incomplete because it is missing the first few pages. It has been studied and it appears to have remnants of blood. | ||||
