Summary

A withered, shriveled, severed human hand is kept chained in a corner. The "owner" of this morbid trophy always keeps three loaded revolvers in the same room. Nothing seems too suspicious until the hand is mysteriously reclaimed.

Just a scary story

This is not at all a bad short story, but it was a bit predictable. The narration is excellent but this is a rather simple scary story with little else going for it. If you are in the mood for a short campfire story this is not worth a credit, but at $0.58 it was worth the listen.

Spooky Short, Beautifully Performed

This was a wonderful spooky short story about an eerie hand. A classic horror story, beautifully performed by B J Harrison. Very entertaining and definitely worth hearing.

The Hand

The Hand

A neat little creepy story. Not worth a full credit, but pick it up on sale.

Watch out for the hand

A fun quick story for the kids or the kid in all of us. Perfect for telling around the campfire.
The narration is very good

Classic

Would you try another book from Guy de Maupassant and/or B.J. Harrison?

Yes, its a classic and well acted out.

Did The Hand inspire you to do anything?

Yes, scare the poo out of my niece and nephew.
