  The Unparrelled invasion - From...

  Jack London

  John Griffith Chaney was born on January 12th, 1876 in San Francisco.   
  His father, William Chaney, was living with Flora Wellman when she became pregnant.  Chaney insisted she have an abortion.  Flora's response was to turn a gun on herself.  Although her wounds were not severe the trauma made her temporarily deranged. 
  In late 1876 his mother married John London and the young child was brought to live with them as they moved around the Bay area, eventually settling in Oakland where now, calling himself Jack, he completed grade school. 
  Jack worked hard at several jobs, sometimes 12-18 hours a day, but his dream was university.  He studied hard and borrowed the money to enrol in the summer of 1896 at the University of California in Berkeley. 
  In 1897, at 21, Jack searched out newspaper accounts of his mother's suicide attempt and for the name of his biological father. He wrote to Chaney, then living in Chicago, who claimed he could not be Jack’s father because he was impotent and casually asserted that London's mother had relations with other men.  Jack, devastated by the response, quit Berkeley and went to the Klondike. Other accounts suggest that his dire finances presented Jack with the excuse he needed to leave. 
  In the Klondike Jack began to gather material for his writing but also accumulated many health problems, including scurvy, which together with hip and leg problems he would carry for the rest of his life. 
  During the late 1890's Jack was regularly publishing short stories and by the turn of the century full blown novels. 
  By 1904 Jack had married, fathered two children and was now in the process of divorcing.  A stint as a reporter on the Russo-Japanese war of 1904 was equal amounts trouble and experience. But that experience was always put to good use in a continuing and remarkable output of work. 
  In 1905 he married Charmian Kittredge who at last was a soul and companion who brought him some semblance of peace despite his advancing alcoholism and his incurable wanderlust. 
  Twelve years later Jack had amassed both wealth and a literary reputation through such classics as ‘The Call of the Wild’, ‘White Fang’ and many others. He had a reputation as a social activist and was a tireless friend of the workers.   
  Jack London died suffering from dysentery, late-stage alcoholism and uremia, aged only 40, on November 22nd 1916 at his property in Glen Elen in California.

  Title: The Evil Clergyman 
  Series Name: Timeless Terrors 
  Series Entry: 156 
  Author: H. P. Lovecraft 
  Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
  Original Publication: Written c. 1933 
  Public Domain: Yes 
  Description: 
  The Evil Clergyman is one of H. P. Lovecraft’s most unusual and dreamlike works — a brief but deeply unsettling tale that explores identity, possession, and the terrifying instability of reality itself. 
  Presented as a strange and fragmented experience, the story follows a man who finds himself trapped within an ancient house, gripped by a growing sense of confusion and dread. As he struggles to understand his surroundings, he becomes increasingly aware that something is profoundly wrong — not only with the house and its history, but with his own place within it. The shadow of a long-dead clergyman hangs heavily over the events, and the distinction between self and other begins to dissolve in alarming ways. 
  Unlike many of Lovecraft’s better-known cosmic tales, The Evil Clergyman derives its power from atmosphere, psychological unease, and surreal disorientation. The narrative unfolds with the logic of a nightmare, revealing glimpses of hidden histories, forbidden knowledge, and uncanny transformations without ever fully explaining their meaning. Every detail contributes to a mounting sense of unreality that leaves both protagonist and reader questioning what is truly taking place.

  Title: The Body Snatcher 
  Author: Robert Louis Stevenson 
  Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
  Original Publication: 1884 
  Public Domain: Yes 
  Series: Timeless Terrors 
  Number: 101 
  Description: 
  The Body Snatcher is a grim and gripping tale of ambition, guilt, and the macabre undercurrents of scientific progress. Set in the shadowed streets and dissecting rooms of 19th-century Scotland, the story follows Fettes, a young medical student drawn into the sinister trade of procuring corpses for anatomical study. Under the cold guidance of his mentor, the brilliant but morally compromised Wolfe Macfarlane, Fettes becomes entangled in a world where freshly buried bodies are commodities—and where the line between the living and the dead is disturbingly thin. 
  As the demands of medical advancement collide with conscience and fear, Stevenson crafts a narrative steeped in dread and psychological tension. Inspired in part by the real-life crimes of Burke and Hare, the story explores themes of moral decay, complicity, and the haunting persistence of guilt. Each revelation tightens the atmosphere, building toward a climax that is as chilling as it is unforgettable. 
  Narrated by Amazon-bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, this performance captures the story’s brooding intensity and creeping horror, drawing listeners into a shadowed world of graveyards, secrets, and consequences that refuse to stay buried. The Body Snatcher endures as one of Stevenson’s most disturbing works—a masterful study of terror not only in what is done, but in what cannot be undone.
