A Terribly Strange Bed is a short story written by Wilkie Collins, a popular British author of the 19th century. The story is a thrilling tale of a young man named Faulkner who visits Paris and gets involved in a dangerous gambling game. Faulkner wins a large sum of money and is invited to stay at a luxurious hotel by his new acquaintances. However, he soon discovers that his room has a mysterious and unsettling feature: a bed that can be locked from the outside. As the night progresses, Faulkner realizes that he is trapped and at the mercy of his hosts, who are determined to steal his winnings. With his life in danger, Faulkner must use his wit and cunning to escape the deadly trap. A Terribly Strange Bed is a gripping and suspenseful story that showcases Collins' mastery of the mystery and horror genres.THIS 22 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Omnibus of Adventure Volume One, by Wilkie Collins.
