The Upper Berth is a classic horror short story written by F. Marion Crawford. The story revolves around two men, one of whom is a seasoned sailor, who board a ship for a voyage across the Atlantic. The sailor is assigned a cabin with two berths, one above the other. He chooses the lower berth, while the upper berth remains unoccupied. As the voyage progresses, the sailor starts experiencing strange occurrences in his cabin, including a mysterious presence in the upper berth. Despite his efforts to investigate, he is unable to uncover the source of the disturbance. The tension builds until the final chilling climax, where the sailor finally confronts the terrifying truth about the upper berth. The Upper Berth is a classic example of Victorian-era horror writing, with its atmospheric setting, suspenseful pacing, and spine-tingling supernatural elements.SOMEBODY asked for the cigars.
