3 Horror Stories - About Necromancy

"There is something about the number 3. The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two. Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois. It seems good things usually come in threes.Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating.From their pens to your your ears."

Ernst Raupach, H.P. Lovecraft, Wilkie Collins (Author), Elliot Fitzpatrick (Narrator)

Atmospheric Horror Stories

"Horror stories are designed from the onset to create a story that will suddenly go very wrong and create a sheer horror and hell not only for the characters in the story but by extension ourselves. In this carefully crafted volume, our authors use their talents to create an atmosphere that might start with tingling tension but builds and builds until we can trust nothing but the certainty of the next few words and the wrath they will bring.1 - Atmospheric Horror Stories - An Introduction2 - The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving3 - Oh Whistle and I'll Come to You My Lad by M R James4 - For the Blood is the Life by F Marion Crawford5 - The Spectral Hand by Jean Lorrain6 - A Diagnosis of Death by Ambrose Bierce7 - Let Loose by Mary Cholmondeley8 - The Kit Bag by Algernon Blackwood9 - The Prediction by Mary Diana Dods writing as David Lyndsey10 - Vampirismus or Aurelia by E T A Hoffman11 - Caterpillars by E F Benson12 - Smee by A M Burrage13 - Count Magnus by M R James14 - The Crimson Weaver by R Murray Gilchrist15 - The Shadows on the Wall by Mary E Wilkins Freeman16 - The Villa Désirée by May Sinclair17 - The Empty House by Algernon Blackwood18 - The Open Door - Part 1 by Margaret Oliphant19 - The Open Door - Part 2 by Margaret Oliphant20 - The Ghost at the Rath by Rosa Mulholland21 - Wake Not the Dead - Part 1 by Ernst Raupach22 - Wake Not the Dead - Part 2 by Ernst Raupach"

The Foundations of Fiction - Gothic Horror

"In this series we turn the pages of classic short stories to put together the literary building blocks of how a particular genre or theme began, how it built its foundations to become the well-loved and well-worn genre that it is today.Do authors have the same ideas at more or less the same time? Or can they sniff out an opportunity as to which way the tastes of an audience are moving. Success undoubtedly builds success and in literary terms we can more politely say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and the surest way to reach a hungry readership is to build on the fortune and flair of your literary colleagues. The mere placing of these two words together creates a picture and a feeling that dark times are coming. Something evil, perhaps unfathomable, will be launched upon us by an author’s imagination that is sure to bring consequences that may only unsettle but equally may go much, much further than anyone, at first, imagined. 01 - Foundations of Fiction - Gothic Horror - An Introduction2 - The Fall of the House of Usher by Edgar Allan Poe3 - The Signalman by Charles Dickens4 - The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving5 - Olalla by Robert Louis Stevenson6 - The Queen of Spades by Alexander Pushkin7 - The Dream by Mary Shelley8 - Green Tea by Sheridan Le Fanu9 - The Lifted Veil by George Eliot10 - Count Magnus by M R James11 - The Sand-Man by E T A Hoffman12 - The Striding Place by Gertrude Atherton13 - Thurnley Abbey by Perceval Landon14 - The Yellow Sign by Robert W Chambers15 - The Three Sisters by W W Jacobs16 - Vampirismus or Aurelia by E T A Hoffman17 - The Cask of Amontillado by Edgar Allan Poe18 - A Diagnosis of Death by Ambrose Bierce19 - Wake Not the Dead by Ernst Raupach"
