Summary

The Boarded Window is a chilling short story by Ambrose Bierce that follows the life of Murlock, a solitary man who lives in a cabin with a boarded-up window. The story begins with Murlock's death and the discovery of his wife's grave nearby. As the narrator delves into the mysterious circumstances surrounding their lives, a haunting tale of loss, isolation, and perhaps even the supernatural unfolds. The boarded window, a constant symbol of seclusion and concealment, becomes a focal point of the story, hinting at a dark secret that remains unspoken.
