• Linda Pastan's "The Deathwatch Beetle": Experience a haunting narrative that echoes the style of Edgar Allan Poe, delving deep into the psyche's unraveling amidst the omnipresent ticking of the deathwatch beetle—a symbol of impending doom.
• Lord Alfred Tennyson's "The Kraken": Plunge into the abyssal depths of the ocean, where Tennyson paints a vivid picture of a monstrous creature, stirring theories that it might have inspired the infamous Cthulhu mythos.
