Overview
A Terribly Strange Bed" is a short story by Wilkie Collins, first published in 1852 in Household Words, a magazine edited by Charles Dickens.
Written in the narrative, the story is about a young man staying in Paris, after finishing his college education, and is exploring the amusements there. As a change from respectable establishments, he visits a low gambling house, where a variety of unsavory characters are playing Rouge e Noir.

From there on, our narrator becomes a victim of an unscrupulous team of villains.
