Read the Book: The Fog horn

Jack introduces us to this weeks story as part of the Tales from the Library Book Club, 'The Fog Horn' by Ray Bradbury. 

This week in the Book Club we will be reading 'The Fog Horn' by Ray Bradbury. 'The Fog Horn' is a 1951 science fiction short story by American writer Ray Bradbury, the first in his collection The Golden Apples of the Sun. The story was the basis for the 1953 film The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms.

The story tells of two men isolated on a lone island as lighthouse keepers. On the night before one of the men returns to land the older man reveals he has a secret to tell; tonight is the night that a strange and mysterious creature from the depth of the sea visits the lighthouse, lured out of the deeps by the call of the lonely fog horn...
