Armchair Fiction presents paperback collections of the best in classic horror short stories. “Horror Gems, Volume 16, The Best Weird Fiction of 1923, Pt. One; Seabury Quinn and Others.” This is the first of two Horror Gems collections celebrating the classic works of “The Unique Magazine,” Weird Tales. The year was 1923 when tales took a turn for the weird with the launch of the world’s first genre pulp magazine, Weird Tales; and here we have a collection of the weirdest and most spine tingling of the first year. So jump into Seabury Quinn’s “The Phantom Farm House” where mysterious legends, dream houses, and unimaginable terrors come to life. Perhaps tales of revenge are your preference? Then try William P. Barron’s “Jungle Beasts” where one learns never to mess with the feline species—or face a harrowing fate! Then there is Vance Hoyt’s “The Devils Cabin” where legend terrifies even the most seasoned adventurer and beasts creep in the night. Things take a turn for the strange as science takes over in Anthony M. Rud’s “Ooze,” when the hunger of one man’s creation spirals out of control and can no longer be contained! These and more fantastic tales abound in Armchair Fiction’s latest Horror Gems collection. The contents are as follows:
