The Moonlit Road by Ambrose Bierce - Gothic Horror Story

A sordid tale of jealousy and murder. He suspected his wife was having an affair and unleashed a plan to discover the truth. Would the truth destroy his family and lead him down the path to insanity? The Moonlit Road by Ambrose Bierce, that’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, with at least one lost vintage sci-fi short story in every episode.

Our week of Scary Stories for Halloween continues with another tale from 1907.

Ambrose Bierce was a short story writer, journalist, poet, and a veteran of the American Civil War. He was born in Meigs County, Ohio in a log cabin in 1842. How and where did his life come to an end? We don’t know. In 1913, Bierce told reporters that he was travelling to Mexico to gain first-hand experience of the Mexican Revolution. He disappeared and was never seen again.

First published in Cosmopolitan in January 1907, The Moonlit Road by Ambrose Bierce…

Tomorrow on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, He was told the brightly colored red room in Lorraine Castle was haunted. Despite vague warnings from the three custodians who reside in the castle, he is not a believer in such things and ascends to "the Red Room" to begin his night's vigil. That’s tomorrow on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.
