Weird Tales (1988) Anthology by Marvin Kaye (ed jim3692)
Requirements: ePUB reader, 1.0Mb
Overview: Since its first issue in March 1923, Weird Tales— “The Unique Magazine”—has provided countless readers with the most innovative and offbeat fantasy, suspense, and horror stories. Almost every important writer of fantastic fiction in the first half of this century—including H. P. Lovecraft, Robert E. Howard, Ray Bradbury, Robert Bloch, Fritz Leiber—and countless other notables have had their works showcased in its pages.
Now, in this special volume compiled by popular anthologist Marvin Kaye, some of the most memorable horrific, bizarre tales ever published are assembled, all of which have appeared in various incarnations of Weird Tales over the years.
Incredible surprises await you. Meet one of the strangest villains of all time, Allison V. Harding’s “The Damp Man.” Travel to the Temple of the Flower God in the Congo to discover the cause of an African explorer’s horrific demise, in Jack Snow’s tale “Seed.” Spend the night in Bram Stoker’s “The Judge’s House,” not lived in for fifty years, unless you count its deadly inhabitant.
