Download or read book Trilogy of Terror written by Stephen Gresham and published by Crossroad Press. This book was released on 2017-08-12 with total page 974 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in one collection, three of Stephen Gresham's classic horror novels -- Moon Lake, Rockabye Baby, and Night Touch. *** Moon Lake: FEAR GROWS ON MOON LAKE … And so do hundreds of beautiful water hyacinths. Their lavender petals caress the fog-enshrouded surface. Their sweet-smelling fragrance speaks of passion and death … EVIL GROWS ON MOON LAKE … And honeymooners Michael and Sandy Williams sense the uneasiness. The humming of the insects is too shrill. The mist is too suffocating. The hyacinths are too overgrown … HORROR GROWS ON MOON LAKE … And there is no way to stop it. In the murky depths, through the lush purple flowers, an almost human face takes form. Its glowing eyes pierce the water. Its icy breath chills the night air. It reaches out to claim the innocent — to nourish the evil that lurks in MOON LAKE. *** Night Touch: HELPING HANDS Rob, Andrea, and Adam had been best friends ever since they were children. Rob and Andrea didn't care that Adam was blind and ugly and the other kids made fun of him. They always stood by him. But that summer—the summer they turned fifteen—their friendship would be put to the test in ways beyond their darkest nightmares … KILLING HANDS The mysterious stranger had called the marking on Adam's left hand the Cross of Dark Fortune, and because of it he was able to give Adam the "night touch." Suddenly Adam could see without seeing—drawing pictures, typing, playing the guitar just like everyone else. But his gift demanded a horrifically high price—a price to be paid in evil, death, and blood! *** Rockabye Baby: Mr. Macready was such a nice old man. He liked to watch the children walking home from school, especially the little girls. In fact, Mr. Macready knew all about the children of Granite Heights—their names, their houses, even the nights their parents were away. And when he put on his white nurse's uniform and smeared his lips with blood-red lipstick, any child would be happy to let him through the door. Oh, they always stared a bit at his clear plastic gloves. But that was nothing compared to how they stared when he got his hands around their fragile little necks and crooned … ROCKABYE BABY.
Download or read book Corpus Linguistics and the Analysis of Sociolinguistic Change written by Joan O'Sullivan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-10-28 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corpus Linguistics and the Analysis of Sociolinguistic Change demonstrates how particular styles and varieties of language are chosen and represented in the media, to reveal changing language ideologies and sociolinguistic change. Drawing on a corpus of ads broadcast on an Irish radio station between 1977 and 2017, this book shows how corpus linguistic tools can be creatively employed, in conjunction with frameworks and concepts such as audience and referee design and indexicality, and examines how accents and dialects (vernacular and prestige) are exploited in the ads across the decades. In addition, this book: illustrates the key principles of corpus design for sociolinguistics studies and offers a framework for future diachronic corpus studies of advertising on social media; provides a model for analysing corpus data at both inter-varietal and intra-varietal levels in terms of both accent and dialectal features and explores the efficacy of using particular corpus linguistic tools; identifies key factors which can be used by researchers as evidence for sociolinguistic change and links these factors to relevant theories and frameworks; demonstrates how corpus tools can be used to compare advertising discourse with naturally occurring discourse, with particular reference to markers of (pseudo) intimate discourse. Building on the growing body of research relating to variation and change in Irish English, this book is key reading for researchers and advanced students undertaking research within the areas of sociolinguistics and corpus linguistics.

Download or read book Men of the Deep Waters written by William Hope Hodgson and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-08-01 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 'Men of the Deep Waters,' William Hope Hodgson presents a stirring anthology of nautical tales, brimming with the spectral aura of the unknown and the profound dread and allure of the sea. This collection delivers an array of narratives as deep and mysterious as the waters themselves, penned in a literary style that is as evocative as it is exceptional. Set against the literary context of the early 20th century, when tales of adventure and supernatural were widely savored, Hodgson's work reflects a hybrid genre that combines maritime lore with eerie suspense, illustrating his prowess and commanding a distinct place in fantastical literature. Each story weaves a haunting portrayal of the ocean's inscrutable depths, portraying sailors and the boundless sea with chilling effect. William Hope Hodgson, with his mariner background, used his extensive sea-faring experience to infuse authenticity into his narratives. The dread and admiration Hodgson held for the sea is palpable in this collection. His life at sea began as a teenager, and it was these formidable years that shaped his literary creations. His ability to evoke the mystique of the ocean and its simultaneous capacity for beauty and terror is a testament to his personal journey. Menacing sea creatures and eldritch occurrences in 'Men of the Deep Waters' are a metaphorical sublimation of Hodgson's own encounters and reflections upon the mighty expanse of the oceans. 'Men of the Deep Waters' is recommended for readers who appreciate the confluence of maritime adventure and the supernatural. The book is a fine example of how literary art can transcend mere entertainment, offering a deep dive into the profound fears and reverences humanity holds for the sea. This literary gem is looking to captivate the imagination of readers, just as the impenetrable deep has long captured the souls of seafarers. Hodgson's work remains a must-read for aficionados of the genre and those interested in the psychological interplay between man and the natural world.

Download or read book Cryptofiction Volume III A Collection of Fantastical Short Stories of Sea Monsters Dangerous Insects and Other Mysterious Creatures Cryptofiction Classics Weird Tales of Strange Creatures written by Various and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2015-02-17 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These early works by various authors were originally published in the early 20th century and we are now republishing them with a brand new introduction as part of our Cryptofiction Classics series. 'Cryptofiction - Volume III.' contains a collection of short stories that include 'The She-Wolf' by H. H. Munro, 'The Horror of the Heights' by Arthur Conan Doyle, 'After Dark in the Playing Fields' by M. R. James, and many other classic tales of strange creatures. The genre of cryptofiction has grown up in the shadow of its older brothers, science fiction and fantasy, and specialises in the concept of mysterious creatures such as sea monsters, wolf-men, and lost pre-historic creatures. Cryptofiction takes its name from another, non-literary practice: cryptozoology. This is generally regarded as a pseudoscience by mainstream scientists, relying as it does upon anecdotal, often unverifiable evidence. However, it still boasts many enthusiasts, and continues to exert considerable artistic allure. Cryptofiction is here to stay, and the stories in this collection map the development of a genre which is as strange as it is fascinating. The Cryptofiction Classics series contains a collection of wonderful stories from some of the greatest authors in the genre, including Ambrose Bierce, Arthur Conan Doyle, Robert Louis Stevenson, and Jack London. From its roots in cryptozoology, this genre features bizarre, fantastical, and often terrifying tales of mythical and legendary creatures. Whether it be giant spiders, werewolves, lake monsters, or dinosaurs, the Cryptofiction Classics series offers a fantastic introduction to the world of weird creatures in fiction.
