The House on the Borderland Summary

' The House on the Borderland |

| Very cautiously, I crept forward, and peered down; but could see nothing. Then, I crossed to the left of the passage, to see whether there might be any continuation of the path. Here, right against the wall, I found that a narrow track, some three feet wide, led onward. Carefully, I stepped on to it; but had not gone far, before I regretted venturing thereon. For, after a few paces, the already narrow way, resolved itself into a mere ledge, with, on the one side the solid, unyielding rock, towering up, in a great wall, to the unseen roof, and, on the other, that yawning chasm. |

| On holiday in a remote part of Ireland, two men discover a manuscript in the ruins of an old house, on the edge of a great pit. The manuscript describes the story of the recluse who was the last occupant of the house, believed by the locals to have been built by the devil, and the strange and terrifying experiences that befall him. After defending the house against an attack by evil swine-like creatures that appear from the pit below the house, he is transported through time and space to witness the end of the solar system, before returning to the house to face the final horror. |
