Blackly whimsical, "The Bed" is a classic horror story that features a murderous mechanic whose charismatic spirit survives his death.

And wandering through all the stories, a strange man named November, who might not be a man at all... As Gilbert keeps listening to the tapes, he slowly realizes that the stories may hold the key to helping Ant. But in order to save his brother, he may be opening a door to something much, much worse...
