Wake Not the Dead
By Ernst Raupach
Walter is a powerful lord, lost in the grief of his first wife Brunhilda. Still, he marries another woman named Swanhilda and has children with her. One day, he meets a sorcerer who offers him a chance to resurrect his first love. But nothing is ever free, and the consequences of waking the dead are dire. Ignoring the ill omens, Walter agrees to bring Brunhilda back, not expecting the terrible repercussions to come… This Gothic short story is for those who love Edgar Allan Poe and Bram Stoker. It is dark and beautifully haunting. Dive in now and find out why it’s never a good idea to bring back a dead person, no matter how much you miss them.
