The Human Chair

Edogawa Rampo

First published 1956
Type Short Fiction
Length Short Story

Possibly doesn't qualify as speculative, but is a genre story because it's been published in a genre context. The idea of living in a chair is bizarre, but that's the most fantastic thing about the story. {{Tr|James B. Harris}}
