Sheerin interviews Harrim
Sheerin interviews Harrim 682, a longshoreman who suffered a severe breakdown after riding the Tunnel of Mystery. Harrim describes the terror of the total Darkness, which triggered an instinctive fear. He is now in a claustrophilic phase, afraid to leave the hospital. The interview reveals the profound psychological damage the Darkness can inflict, even on a strong man, and sets the stage for Sheerin's own upcoming ordeal.
