"THE THING AT NOLAN" by Ambrose Bierce, Reimagined | #MidnightInTheMacabre

A work of fiction. Based on "The Thing at Nolan" by Ambrose Bierce (1891), retold in a present-day setting. | Charles May walked into the woods with a spade and never came home, and while his son sat in a hospital bed under arrest for killing him, five men eight miles away in Nolan swore they'd watched Charles walk through a store that same afternoon with his head split open.
