The Terrible Old Man — H. P. Lovecraft
Three thieves ignore the silent stones and strange stories of Kingsport to target a trembling recluse. They judge their victim by his shaking hands, not his ancient eyes. But inside the house on Water Street, the tables turn. In the dark, the robbers learn too late that youth is arrogant, greed is blind, and old age is terrible.
