Yes, it was on a night like this, when I was at home for a spell, waiting to take the Olympia out on her first trip—it was on the next voyage that she broke the record, you remember—but that dates it. Ninety-two was the year, early in November.
The weather was dirty, Pratt was out of temper, and the dinner was bad, very bad indeed, which didn't improve matters, and cold, which made it worse. The poor little lady was very unhappy about it, and insisted on making a Welsh rarebit[Pg 46] on the table to counteract the raw turnips and the half-boiled mutton. Pratt must have had a hard day. Perhaps he had lost a patient. At all events, he was in a nasty temper.Read More

I checked this out after hearing that one of the stories was a vampire tale. It turned out to be a psychic vampire, but still, it was interesting. Actually every one of the three stories I read was interesting, though verbose. That's not to say they were poorly written. They were just written for a
These eight short stories by F. Marion Crawford remind me of the supernatural fiction of John Buchan. Both authors were accomplished popular authors of their day, skillful at painting a scene, relating a conflict or encounter, and creating a memorable effect. Both of them, however, seem to be men of

Valdemar recuperó a un autor casi olvidado con la publicación de La calavera aullante y otros relatos de fantasmas espeluznantes. Gracias a su labor de redescubrimiento de autores tan solo conocidos por los más eruditos en la materia, podemos disfrutar de notables antologías como la que nos
Autor desconocido merecidamente por ser tan bueno. Relatos hechos con amor, miedo y placer. El resultado es terrorífico.
El no escribir por dinero, ni tener la presión y subidón de la fama. Hace que se escriba como a uno le sale, y no como se quiere.
