    THE TRIAL FOR MURDER
    Some days ago was a beautiful day, like each Monday I walked for the park, there were many people around here, in the next street a man looked what happened out his windows, suddenly I saw two men, they were walking strangely , the final one had a bad aspect , it looked that he wanted hit to the first man, although I wanted to know more about this problem and the fight between those men, I had to go my home for cook the lunch.
    One new day was waiting for me. It was Tuesday, I hadto go to market for some fruits and vegetables, but unfortunately nobody served me, it seemed that there is terrible new in the newspaper, somebody was murder some nights ago, the police researched the murderer for several time without answer, I didn’t know why I thought that the men of that day hadsome relation.
    the time was passing and finally the trial’s day started, I wanted to sit very near to jury for see everything, but that surprise , the man who was in the windows last Monday’s morning was one the jury, and the first strange man was the accused.
    The courtroom had a thick fog over it, two witness tried to talk about the murder, the first one didn’t finish her testimony, I did’t know why, and the final one looked scary and also he didn’t finish it.
    The man of the windows seemed to know what was happening here, it had a white face, I thought that he had seen a ghost.
    The trial had a inexpert turn, when a picture of the murdered was found in the murderer’s pocket .
    Everything had been sort, the man was guilty although he tried deny all.

    This horror story caught my attention because of the mistery, I could not stop reading until I finished but at the end I was disappointed because I expected more terror. In my opinion the tale was good, but there were missing parts.

    I love so much this story and all Edgar Allan Poe stories. I'm a huge big fan of that man. He was a genius and all his stories are awesome. Definitely I can't hate any tale or poem of this WRITTER. He's the father of moder horror and I agree all his tales are great. When I saw this tale on the list I was so excited, even I knew it before.
