This week Cassandra reads H.G. Wells' The Red Room. The narrator of The Red Room is a 28-year-old who doesn't believe in the supernatural. He comes to Lorraine Castle with the intention of spending the night in the Red Room, a place rumored to be haunted. As Cassandra explains it, the story "intertwines the psychological with the supernatural in a delectable way." How do you personally deal with the fear of the unknown? Enjoy! H.G. Wells' The Red Room was first published in 1896 and is in the public domain. -- Jim Harold Media LLC respects writers' intellectual property.
