Can't find the story, but the gist was,

While working at a morgue, a body rings the bell, tied to their hand to let attendents know someone isn't dead. Twain, the night man goes in to investigate. Twain finds the man he's be searching for. He strangles the man and the last line is something about for hundreds of years, no bell has ever rung.
