Sinopse

Ancient Sorceries by Algernon Blackwood is offered here in a clean English digital edition prepared for fluent ebook reading. The work stands within horror and gives modern readers direct access to a public-domain classic with navigable structure and a restrained typographic presentation. The opening pages establish the book's atmosphere with this first movement: There are, it would appear, certain wholly unremarkable persons, with none of the characteristics that invite adventure, who yet once or twice in the course of their smooth lives undergo an experience so strange that the world catches its breath — and looks the other way! And it was cases of this ki This edition is suited to readers who want a reliable, uncluttered version of the text for study, rediscovery, and sustained reading.

    Calcutta is the central character in each of the three stories in this book. As all Bengalis will tell you, even when the city stands quietly in the corner, not saying a word, her presence may be deeply felt by those close to her. The House and Other Stories is also about the many persons we encounter in the everyday. These are the people we pass by without a second thought. Who are these people? What stories lie locked up in each of them? Will they ever be told? Like magic, one question leads to another and soon, they no longer appear anonymous; they come alive. It is as if an entirely new world has been conjured before our eyes. And we are enchanted by the stories that have lain hidden from us for so long. Even if the stories emerge at times from the realm of the dead.

    What if the most dangerous predator on Earth isn't human - and it’s finally stopped hiding?" A leisurely cliffside walk in Devonshire spirals into a primal fight for survival when Mr. Fison witnesses a scene of alien gore. Those aren't sea birds scavenging on the rocks; they are the Haploteuthis ferox - a nightmare of glistening leather, intelligent eyes, and whip-like tentacles rising from the abyss. In this atmospheric masterclass of Victorian horror, H.G. Wells proves that the ocean’s greatest terrors aren't just myths - they are hungry. From the slippery, blood-slicked reefs of Sidmouth to a frantic, bone-chilling escape in a small rowing boat, "The Sea Raiders" is a high-tension account of a world suddenly realizing it is no longer at the top of the food chain. The tide is coming in, and it’s bringing a monster with an insatiable taste for human flesh. Are we truly the masters of the Earth, or just easy prey for the monsters below? Press play and start your journey into the sunless depths today!

    Adrift on a vast and moonlit ocean, a lone ship encounters a desperate voice crying out from the darkness. What begins as a strange maritime encounter soon unfolds into one of the most unsettling tales in classic horror literature. As the narrator listens, a horrifying story emerges—of isolation, decay, and a creeping, unnatural transformation that defies reason. 
    William Hope Hodgson masterfully blends cosmic dread with maritime terror, creating an atmosphere thick with unease and inevitability. Narrated by Graham Dunlop, this haunting tale is brought vividly to life, drawing listeners into a chilling descent where the unknown is far more terrifying than anything seen. 
    A cornerstone of early weird fiction, The Voice in the Night lingers long after the final word—echoing like a whisper across dark waters.

    On a moonlit spring evening, a young man’s hopes for love become entangled with the secrets of the dead. 
     
    Levko longs to marry Hanna, but his stubborn father—the village headman—refuses to help. As songs, pranks, and rivalries disturb the village’s peace, Levko finds himself beside a mysterious pool, where a ruined manor overlooks the water and drowned maidens gather beneath the moon. 
     
    One restless spirit needs his help. A witch hides among her companions, and Levko must recognize the evil beneath an innocent appearance. His answer could change more than the maiden’s fate. 
     
    By turns playful, romantic, and haunting, A May Night blends Ukrainian folklore with Gogol’s sharp eye for human foolishness. Village comedy gives way to supernatural wonder in a world where beauty and danger share the same reflection. 
     
    Narrated by Greg Cooper, this atmospheric classic offers an enchanting escape for listeners who enjoy ghost stories, mischievous humor, and romance touched by the uncanny.

    Still reeling from everything that had happened in Pennsylvania, Noah and I headed back to Rosetta’s for a regrouping session...well, and some fried chicken. 
    Unfortunately, part of this regrouping happened to be with Gabe. But he said he had a line on Old Dukey himself and besides what killing him would probably do for my total on the Price of Souls is Right, I was really looking forward to a demon-flavored game of Operation and making his nose light up when I removed vital parts of his anatomy. 
    I had a feeling that he was the brains behind Ornias and if killing him would break my contract, all the better. Some blood rain, a little light fornication in front of Rosetta’s sink, a handful of waking visions, and one state over, things are starting to get weird. You never really appreciate sanity and having a grip on reality until it’s gone and you’re left, butt cheeks flapping in the wind. Exposed. 
    When that happens, you’re just hoping that somewhere, someone will give you shelter. Even if it’s in the last place you expected. 
    Narrated by D.V. Wolfe herself. :) 
    Length: 4 hours
