Publisher's summary

An invisible alien parasite slowly takes over the penetrating mind of a French nobleman. He slowly loses control over his thoughts, his words, and his deeds. Is it insanity? Or is it the Horla?

Unmatched, Monumental Writing Power

Monumental writing power coupled with B.J. Harrison's sensory interpretation of The Horla will screw you down into your chair. To say, it is a horror story, or a case of a haunting, real madness bit by bit overwhelming the sanity of an intelligent nobleman, you will have to decide.
But Maupassant's eloquent, creative writing is so visible and palpable , you, like I, I believe will hold you spellbound....and truly, afraid...and only will you know in the last moments that this is true.
