    "A Dream of Red Hands" is a short story by Bram Stoker. It was first published in the July 11, 1894 issue of The Sketch: A Journal of Art and Actuality, London.
    The first opinion given to me regarding Jacob Settle was a simple descriptive statement, "He's a down-in-the-mouth chap": but I found that it embodied the thoughts and ideas of all his fellow-workmen.

    Some sins don't die quietly. One careless, drunken night, Erica kills her best friend and buries the truth beneath layers of lies. Another woman, Jasmine, has blood on her hands. Two women. Two deadly secrets. But the dead don't stay buried. 
    When their paths collide, an ancient darkness awakens something old and hungry, drawn to their guilt like a scent in the dark. Whispers echo in empty rooms. Shadows move when no one's looking. And a demon with a grin like broken glass toys with them both, twisting their crimes into a nightmare they can't escape. 
    Erica wants redemption. Jasmine wants wealth. But the darkness wants them both, and it won't stop until they've paid for every drop of blood they spilled. 
    Run. Hide. Confess. Nothing can save them now. The darkness is waiting, and it's hungry!

    Title: The Diary of a Madman 
    Author: Guy de Maupassant 
    Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
    Original Publication: 1885 
    Public Domain: Yes 
    Series Placement: Number 14 in the Timeless Terrors series 
    Description: 
    The Diary of a Madman by Guy de Maupassant is a chilling study of psychological horror and the fragility of sanity. First published in 1885, it presents the private writings of a respected judge whose outward civility hides a dark descent into obsession and cruelty. 
    Told through the intimate form of diary entries, the story reveals the gradual unraveling of a mind — a voice both rational and terrifyingly unhinged. Maupassant strips away the veneer of normalcy to expose the horrors lurking within the human psyche. 
    This recording, narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, captures the eerie intimacy and creeping dread that defines Maupassant’s tale. While the text is in the public domain, this performance is an original work and copyright © 2025 Jonathan Dunne. 
    This audiobook is part of Timeless Terrors, a dedicated series bringing classic horror back to life — stories from the great masters of the macabre, narrated afresh to haunt a new generation. 
    Listeners should be prepared for an unsettling exploration of madness, hidden violence, and the shadows that dwell in ordinary men.
