The Voice in the Night by William Hope Hodgson is a chilling maritime horror first published in 1907. The story follows two sailors who encounter a mysterious castaway on a fog-drenched sea. His tale of isolation, disease, and transformation reveals a creeping terror that lingers far beyond the narrative.
