Every night, a man fills a glass of water before going to bed.  

Every morning, the glass is empty.

No one has entered the house.

In this episode, we enter Le Horla, Guy de Maupassant's unsettling story about a man who slowly becomes convinced that an invisible presence is taking control of his home, his thoughts, and even his identity.  

We also discover why the story becomes even more powerful when we look at Maupassant's own life, his declining health, and the growing uncertainty surrounding his own perceptions.

At the heart of Le Horla is a question that Maupassant never fully answers: is the narrator facing something supernatural, or is he losing control of his own mind?
