the face

''steadily i neared the great building. then all at once, something came round one of the huge buttresses of the house, and so into full view. it was a gigantic thing, and moved with a curious lope, going almost upright, after the manner of a man. it was quite unclothed, and had a remarkable, luminous appearance. yet it was the face that attracted and frightened me the most. it was the face of a swine.''

william hope hodgson, the house on the borderland.
