I’m very happy to report that Searchers After Horror (Fedogan & Bremer 2014), edited by noted Weird Fiction scholar S.T. Joshi, is now available in its trade edition.

And, yes, I am a little awed to be a part of this. (Of course, I’ve always been a little odd.)

An early review by John L. Probert of “This Is Horror” is here.

H.P. Lovecraft's "The Shunned House" gets star treatment today from eldritchhobbit .  On Day 29 of her Halloween countdown, she's offering not only a link to the story itself, but  also the full text of Lovecraft's related poem, "The House"  -- and a bonus link to the local history and lore which inspired this story. 

There are photos of the original Shunned House  (or at least, the one that inspired HPL)  in Providence, RI, as well.  Definitely worth a visit if you are at all interested in Lovecraft, or just curious about one of his lesser-known tales.
