Summary

The Strange Visitation is a mystery tale set on the Christmas Eve in the mansion of well-known multi-millionaire Josiah McNason who receives an unusual and uninvited guest. It was a small uncanny creature, like an unpleasantly huge spider with a human head, small enough to curl itself up on the arm of an easy chair, yet large enough to create fear and repulsion in the mind of such a powerful man. The creature presented itself as Professor Goblin from Hell's United Empire Club, threatening to skin millionaire's soul. As the witching hour approaches, the Goblin grows wings and takes Josiah away on a life changing road trip somewhere between dreams and reality.

    Asleep in Armageddon by Ray Bradbury is a haunting and atmospheric science fiction tale that explores the thin boundary between consciousness and madness. After crash-landing on a desolate planetoid, space traveler Leonard Sale finds himself trapped in chilling isolation—until disembodied voices of ancient warriors begin to invade his mind. Bradbury masterfully blends psychological horror, cosmic loneliness, and philosophical reflection to deliver a story that lingers long after the final line. Perfect for fans of introspective sci-fi, eerie space fiction, and the darker side of human nature.
