  Title: A Watcher by the Dead 
  Author: Ambrose Bierce 
  Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
  Original Publication: 1889 
  Public Domain: Yes 
  Series Placement: Timeless Terrors #57 
  Description: 
  A Watcher by the Dead is a masterclass in psychological horror — a tense, claustrophobic story that proves fear itself can be deadly. 
  The tale begins with a wager: one man must spend the night alone in a room with a corpse to prove that fear of the dead is mere superstition. At first, the room is silent and still, but as hours stretch on, dread slowly tightens its grip. Every shadow, every creak, every flicker of light becomes a torment, twisting his imagination into terror. The suspense crescendos as the prank meant to test courage takes a horrifying and fatal turn. 
  Bierce’s story relies on atmosphere and the human mind’s susceptibility to fear rather than gore or spectacle. The terror is immediate, intimate, and unforgettable. 
  Narrated by Amazon-bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this performance brings Bierce’s chilling tale of dread and fatal curiosity vividly to life. While the text is firmly in the public domain, this narration is an original performance and copyright © 2025 Jonathan Dunne. 
  Part of Timeless Terrors, a series dedicated to resurrecting the masters of the macabre, A Watcher by the Dead reminds us that sometimes the most dangerous thing in a room is not the corpse itself… but the fear it inspires.

  The Helena is an art deco apartment building that has witnessed the changing face of South Miami Beach for seventy years, observing the lives housed within. Among those who have called apartment 2B home are a Cuban concert pianist who performs in a nursing home; the widow of an intelligence officer raising her young daughter alone; a man waiting on a green card marriage to run its course so that he can divorce his wife and marry his lover, all of whom live together; a Tajik building manager with a secret identity; and a troubled young refugee named Lenin. Each tenant imbues 2B with energy that will either heal or overwhelm its latest resident, Lana, a mysterious woman struggling with her own past. 
   
   
   
  Examining exile, homesickness, and displacement, The Apartment asks what—in our violent and lonely century—do we owe one another? If alone we are powerless before sorrow and isolation, it is through community and the sharing of our stories that we may survive and persevere.
