About this listen

During a cholera epidemic in New York City, the narrator visits a relative living just outside of the city. One day, the narrator has a vision of a ghastly monster alighting in the distant hills. After a second vision, his host reveals that the "monster" is neither as large nor as distant as the visitor imagined, being only an insect.
