This seminal collection of short stories introduces a mythology of yellow signs, pallid masks, and the terrifying city of Carcosa, influencing generations of weird fiction writers. The prose is lush and dreamlike, creating an atmosphere of dread that suggests a reality unraveling at the seams. It is a masterpiece of the supernatural that explores the danger of forbidden knowledge and the fragility of the human mind.

    Major Hesketh Vernon Prichard, DSO MC FRGS FZS was born on the 17th November 1876 in Jhansi, North-Western Provinces, India, then part of the British Empire. 
     
    His achievements in life, beyond his literary career, are both voluminous and startling. 
     
    He was an explorer, adventurer, marksman, game hunter and first-class cricketer.  In his literary career he wrote short stories, novels, travel pieces and was also a newspaper correspondent. 
     
    His father died a few weeks before his birth and his mother, Kate, with whom he co-authored much of his literary output raised him herself.  They returned to England where he was educated and excelled at cricket.  After school he trained to be a lawyer but never practiced.  At 19 he was publishing the first of his stories.   
     
    Over the following years he was commissioned to write many pieces as he explored and journeyed around the world including to Haiti, Labrador and Patagonia, where little was known and he thought it his duty to investigate and inform others of his findings.  On some of these his mother also travelled with him as they continued their literary journey. 
     
    He managed to become part of the Great War effort at 37, although was considered too old for front line duty.  Instead he turned his skills to helping establish an Army school of Snipers to mitigate and improve the skills of British snipers and their then appalling losses.  In this he was eventually successful and is credited with the saving of thousands of lives. 
     
    Hesketh Prichard died from sepsis on the 14th June 1922, at Old Gorhambury House, in Hertfordshire, England.  He was 45. 
     
    His mother, Kate, survived him and died in 1935.

    With the 80's nostalgia of Stranger Things, this horror drama from NYT bestselling author Christopher Golden follows neighborhood families and a mysterious, lurking evil on one Halloween day. 
    It’s Halloween night, 1984, in Coventry, Massachusetts, and two families are unraveling. Up and down the street, horrifying secrets are being revealed, and all the while, mixed in with the trick-or-treaters of all ages, four children who do not belong are walking door to door, merging with the kids of Parmenter Road. Children in vintage costumes with faded, eerie makeup. They seem terrified, and beg the neighborhood kids to hide them away, to keep them safe from The Cunning Man. There’s a small clearing in the woods now that was never there before, and a blackthorn tree that doesn’t belong at all. These odd children claim that The Cunning Man is coming for them...and they want the local kids to protect them. But with families falling apart and the neighborhood splintered by bitterness, who will save the children of Parmenter Road? 
    New York Times bestselling, Bram Stoker Award-winning author Christopher Golden is best known for his supernatural thrillers set in deadly, distant locales...but in this suburban Halloween drama, Golden brings the horror home.

    When a series of brutal crimes defies all rational explanation, investigators are forced to confront a possibility no one wants to believe. Each crime scene points to a presence that leaves no physical trace—only fear, unanswered questions, and bodies in its wake. 
    As law enforcement races to stop the killings, the line between criminal psychology and the supernatural begins to blur. What starts as a hunt for a human suspect becomes something far darker, drawing those involved into a web of deception, violence, and hidden truths. 
    GHOST is a suspense-driven thriller that blends crime fiction with supernatural elements, exploring what happens when justice collides with forces beyond understanding.
