Paris, 1850. A young Englishman staying in the city sets out one afternoon to explore its outskirts, and wanders into the shanty town of the ragpickers at Montrouge: a wasteland of refuse heaps, half-buried huts and people who live entirely off what the city throws away.
An old woman invites him into her hovel for a chat. She is friendly, curious about his watch and his money, and in no hurry to let him leave. Around them, unseen in the dark heaps, the rats are moving. By the time he understands what is being arranged, the only way out is across miles of open dust, pursued by figures who know every ditch and every hiding place, and who have buried men here before.
Published in 1914 in Dracula’s Guest and Other Weird Stories, The Burial of the Rats is one of Bram Stoker’s most relentless stories: a pure chase thriller of survival horror in the slums of nineteenth-century Paris, by the author of Dracula.
Listen to the complete, unabridged audiobook of this classic Victorian tale of terror.
