The Fog Horn : ウィキペディア英語版 | The Fog Horn "The Fog Horn" is a 1951 science fiction short story by Ray Bradbury, and the first in his collection ''The Golden Apples of the Sun''. The story was the basis for the 1953 film ''The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms''. ==Plot summary== The plot follows Johnny, the protagonist and narrator, and his boss, McDunn, who are putting in a night's work at a remote lighthouse. The lighthouse's resonating fog horn attracts a sea monster who destroys the place. This was actually the third time the monster had visited the lighthouse. He had been attracted by the same fog horn on the same night the two earlier years. McDunn attributes the monster's actions to feelings of unrequited love for the lighthouse, whose fog horn sounds exactly like the wailings of the sea monster himself. The fog horn tricks the monster into thinking he has found another of his kind, one who acts as though the monster did not even exist.
