Complete Re-write Required

[edit]
  • This sounds very much like it was lifted from a Middle school book report. It'd be nice if someone with more maturity and authoritative knowledge would re-do this page.

  • Agreed, it is shockingly bad. Completely inadequate to do proper justice to Bierce's seminal piece of fiction. Needs a complete re-write from somebody please. Note: I have deleted the entire 'Analysis' section as it was purely Original Research and did not belong in the article (it already had an Original Research flag against it). I have kept the 'La Horla' section that was in the deleted 'Analysis' section - others may wish to fortify or delete this.

The article should also be moved to The Damned Thing, and the article currently at that location be moved to another title. It just doesn't do for an adaptation of a literary source to have claim to the title when the literary source does not. The short story is much better known than an episode of a defunct pay-cable television series. Utterly ridiculous. 12.233.147.42 (talk) 01:40, 15 October 2015 (UTC)Reply
