The story was reprinted in various collections including the 1953 publication The Golden Apples of the Sun, the Japanese publications The Fog Horn & Other Stories in 1979 and The Fog Horn and Other Stories in 1981 (both editions were published in English also), and finally Dinosaur Tales in 1983.

The monster of the film was based on the illustration of The Saturday Evening Post. Bradbury then changed the title of his story to "The Fog Horn". Later the producers, who wished to capitalize on Bradbury's reputation and popularity, bought the rights to Bradbury's story and changed their film's title. Meanwhile, a film with a similar theme of prehistoric sea monster was being shot under the working title of Monster from Beneath the Sea. It was published in The Saturday Evening Post. The original title of the story was " The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms". McDunn hypothesizes that the monster will continue to wait in the depths of the world. Years later, Johnny returns and asks McDunn if the monster ever returned it never did. The lighthouse is reconstructed with reinforced concrete and Johnny finds a new job away from the lighthouse. McDunn and Johnny turn off the fog horn, and in a rage, the monster destroys the lighthouse before retreating to the sea. 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. 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. This is in fact the third time the monster has visited the lighthouse: he has been attracted by the same fog horn on the same night for the last two years. The lighthouse's resonating fog horn attracts a sea monster. The plot follows Johnny, the protagonist and narrator, and his boss, McDunn, who are putting in a night's work at a remote lighthouse in late November. The story was the basis for the 1953 film The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms. " The Fog Horn" is a 1951 science fiction short story by American writer Ray Bradbury, the first in his collection The Golden Apples of the Sun.
