A review by mabusecast
Pendulum by Henry Hasse, Ray Bradbury

5.0

Hot take but I found this early Ray Bradbury story,which is clearly inspired by the famous Poe story "the pit and the pendulum", to be a better written story then the Poe one! I still like Poe don't get me wrong but this story by Ray Bradbury for as short as it is packs a punch and has a really cool spin on "the pit and the pendulum"!

One of those short stories that is so simple, yet so well done, that you feel dumb for not having come up with it!
