Short Story

Edición de la obra A Watcher by the Dead

In San Francisco, three physicians discuss man's hereditary, and superstitious, fear of the dead. Dr. Mancher wonders if it is, indeed, universal. Dr. Helberson says it is; it is all a matter of circumstance. And what would happen if a man were locked up with a corpse overnight. ---------- Contained in: - [The Complete Short Stories of Ambrose Bierce](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL14863244W/The_Complete_Short_Stories_of_Ambrose_Bierce) - [Ghost and Horror Stories of Ambrose Bierce](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL7973339W/Ghost_and_Horror_Stories_of_Ambrose_Bierce) - [A Horseman in the Sky / A Watcher by the Dead / The Man and the Snake](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL14863214W/A_Horseman_in_the_Sky_A_Watcher_by_the_Dead_The_Man_and_the_Snake) - [In the Midst of Life: Tales of Soldiers and Civilians](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL15369595W/In_the_Midst_of_Life) - [In the Midst of Life; Tales of Soldiers and Civilians](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL20084540W/In_the_Midst_of_Life_Tales_of_Soldiers_and_Civilians) - [The Moonlit Road and Other Ghost and Horror Stories](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL14863216W/The_Moonlit_Road_and_Other_Ghost_and_Horror_Stories) - [Tales of Soldiers & Civilians](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL16048306W/Tales_of_Soldiers_Civilians) - [Tales of Soldiers and Civilians](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL14863262W)
