Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: H.P. Lovecraft is a master of horror – and in this compilation of stories the reader gets a chance to meet some of Lovecraft's most memorable characters. In ‘The Alchemist’ we meet Count Antoine de C who tells about the curse of his family – due to the curse everyone is expected to die before the age of 32. In ‘Dagon’ the protagonist is addicted to morphine because of the terrible things that happened to him on a ghost island. In ‘Facts Concerning the Late Arthur Jermyn and His Family’ Arthur Jermyn tells about his strange family – and the madness that was in all Jermyns. The collection includes 100 horrific short stories. H.P. Lovecraft (1890–1937) was an American horror writer. His best known works include ‘The Call of Cthulhu’ and ‘the Mountains of Madness’. Most of his work was originally published in pulp magazines, and Lovecraft rose into fame only after his death at the age of 46. He has had a great influence in both horror and science fiction genres.

Download or read book Damnable Tales written by Richard Wells and published by Unbound Publishing. This book was released on 2021-09-02 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This richly illustrated anthology gathers together classic short stories from masters of supernatural fiction including M. R. James, Sheridan Le Fanu and Arthur Machen, alongside lesser-known voices in the field including Eleanor Scott and Margery Lawrence, and popular writers less bound to the horror genre, such as Thomas Hardy and E. F. Benson. These are damnable tales, selected and beautifully illustrated by Richard Wells. They stalk the moors at night, the deep forests, cornered fields and dusky churchyards, the narrow lanes and old ways of these ancient places, drawing upon the haunted landscapes of folk-horror – a now widely used term first applied to a series of British films from the late 1960s and 1970s: Witchfinder General (1968), Blood on Satan’s Claw (1971), and The Wicker Man (1973). But as this collection shows, writers of uncanny fiction were dabbling in the dark side of folklore long before. These twenty-two stories take the reader beyond the safety and familiarity of the town into the isolated and untamed wilderness. Unholy rites, witches’ curses, sinister village traditions and ancient horrors that lurk within the landscape all combine to remind us that the shiny modern, urban world might not have all the answers...
