| 520 | _a"Three at Table" by W. W. Jacobs is a suspenseful short story likely written in the early 20th century. This work fits into the genre of fiction that weaves elements of the supernatural and eerie encounters into its narrative. The story revolves around the themes of isolation and fear, exploring how a solitary traveler finds himself in a strange and ominous situation, prompting reflections on human nature and acceptance. The narrative follows a traveler who, while trying to find his way, encounters a peculiar old couple living in isolation. After losing his way in a thick fog, he seeks refuge in their dilapidated home, where eerie events unfold as he shares a dark dinner with them and their disfigured son, who remains hidden in the shadows. Initially frightened by the situation, the traveler soon learns the backstory of the son, who has been scarred by a fire and has lived a secluded life. As the night progresses, the atmosphere transitions from one of fear to camaraderie as the table becomes a place of unexpected warmth and celebration, marking a birthday that highlights the themes of acceptance and the unseen struggles hidden beneath outward appearances.
