  Margaret Gabrielle Vere Campbell was born on the 1st November 1885 on Hayling Island in Hampshire.  
   
  Her childhood was fraught with problems, her alcoholic father left early in her life and was later found dead on a London Street.  Life thereafter was poverty with an uncaring mother. 
   
  However, her talents took her to the Slade School of Fine Art and later to study in Paris.  
   
  Her first fiction, written at a mere 16, was a violent medieval historical novel, ‘The Viper of Milan’.  Initially rejected by several publishers it went on to become a best-seller  
   
  After this her prolific writings were the main financial support for the family.  Her literary output numbered over 150 volumes, mainly under the pseudonym of Marjorie Bowen but she also used the names Joseph Shearing, George R Preedy, John Winch, Robert Paye and Margaret Campbell.  Within this output she assigned the pseudonyms to the various genres she worked across, from Historical fiction to supernatural short stories.  
   
  Perhaps her best known work is the 1909 book ‘Black Magic’, a Gothic horror novel about a medieval witch. 
   
  Several of her works were also adapted into films.   
   
  She was married twice.  The first to Zefferino Emilio Constanza (they had two children), who died of tuberculosis, and then to Arthur L Long (and another two children). 
   
  Marjorie Bowen died on the 23rd December 1952 at St Charles Hospital in North Kensington, London after suffering a serious concussion from a fall in her bedroom.  She was 67.

  The future is already here—it’s just not human. 
  Deep within the Canadian Rockies, buried beneath a mile of granite and fifty years of silence, lies Helix Station. History has forgotten Helix Station, once a Cold War black site, but not everyone has forgotten it. 
  Dr. Elena Cathcart, a brilliant geneticist for Nexus Pharmaceuticals, believes she is leading a routine expedition to investigate a geological anomaly. She is mistaken. They have sent her, along with battle-hardened operative Jake Hansen and tech prodigy Marcus Singh, to awaken a hidden force. 
  Inside the concrete tomb, they discover "Project Wendigo": a horrifying fusion of alien biology and human DNA that has been starving for decades. It doesn't just hunt flesh; it corrupts reality, rewriting the genetic and digital code of everything it touches. 
  Trapped in a lockdown designed to become a tomb, the team uncovers a terrifying truth: they aren't the rescue party. They are the control group. As the station's systems turn against them and the shadows begin to move, Elena and Jake must fight a war on two fronts—against a creature that can rewrite their very souls and against the corporation that signed their death warrants. 
  Wendigo Protocol is a white-knuckle sci-fi horror thriller that explores the terrifying intersection of corporate greed, biological ascension, and the ghosts in the machine. 
  Book 1 of The Helix Wars.

  Title: Morella 
  Author: Edgar Allan Poe 
  Narrator: Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne 
  Original Publication: April 1835 (in the Southern Literary Messenger) 
  Public Domain: Yes 
  Series Placement: Number 52 in the Timeless Terrors series 
  Description: 
  In Morella, Edgar Allan Poe delivers a chilling study of identity and the uncanny. The narrator’s wife, the brilliant and enigmatic Morella, immerses herself in metaphysical philosophy, her deepening knowledge unsettling her husband as her presence grows increasingly oppressive. When she dies in childbirth, he believes her influence has ended—until their daughter begins to mirror Morella with unsettling precision. 
  As the child matures into her mother’s likeness, the narrator’s dread intensifies. At her baptism, he names her “Morella,” prompting the girl to cry, “I am here!” before she dies. In the family tomb, he discovers that the original Morella’s body has vanished, leaving only the terrifying suggestion of a soul returned. 
  Narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this performance captures the tale’s quiet tension and philosophical darkness, bringing Poe’s fusion of the supernatural and psychological terror into sharp focus. While the text is in the public domain, this narration is an original performance and copyright © 2025 Jonathan Dunne. 
  As the fifty-second entry in Timeless Terrors, Morella remains one of Poe’s most haunting meditations on death, identity, and the chilling possibility that the self may never truly fade.
