    We are all of us, without exception, innately capable of sin. This truth was thrust upon me by a cantankerous ghost when we investigated the haunting of the Saunders house on Livermead Hill. The house itself was a grim construction, steeped in sorrow borne from secrets, anger fueled by lies and the bitter taint of betrayal. 
    Within its walls lurked a tormenting spirit. He took an instant dislike to my presence and let me know, quite clearly, just how wicked we can be. 
    This is the ninth book in the Paranormology Series.

    In An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge, Ambrose Bierce spins a gripping tale of psychological tension and the brutal realities of war. Set during the American Civil War, the story follows Peyton Farquhar, a Southern plantation owner who is sentenced to death by hanging for attempting to sabotage a Union railroad bridge. As Farquhar faces his imminent demise, Bierce masterfully plays with the boundaries of time and perception, drawing readers into a haunting exploration of life, death, and the mind's final moments.
    Bierce's stark portrayal of human suffering, the futility of war, and the illusory nature of time makes this story a striking commentary on the fragility of human existence. Through its sudden twist ending, An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge remains one of Bierce's most iconic works, a brilliant reflection on the contrast between hope and despair.
