"There is no greater Hell than watching a man who loves you more than his own soul, one whom you love more than your own soul, deteriorate into a monster."

"The Long Black Dress" is a short tale of gothic horror told by a young woman returning to an empty home after her husband's funeral. In the oppressive and sentient silence of the hollow house, she descends into grief-fueled memories of their relationship and its tragic end, culminating in a haunting ending.
