    Thirteen tales of terror—from the macabre and morbid to unexplainable stories of the occult—from such authors as Harry Houdini, H. P. Lovecraft, and others.    First hitting newsstands in 1923, Weird Tales magazine quickly became a literary monster in discovering and publishing the best horror, sci-fi and fantasy writers of its day.   The pulp magazine was one of the earliest publications, if not the first, to feature strange tales of occultism and alien invasions that simply didn’t fit into any other magazine at that time.   The stories struck a chord with those early audiences, and as a result, Weird Tales created a subgenre as “weird” could be attached itself to various genres.   Marquee names like master magician Harry Houdini and cosmic horror creator H. P. Lovecraft graced the magazine’s pages during those early years with several debut stories, alongside authors who were already giants in their own right—Otis Adelbert Kline, Seabury Quinn, and Greye La Spina. Maybe lesser known, but no less influential, writers like Frank Belknap Long Jr., Mary S. Brown, Lyllian Huntley Harris, Hasan Vokine, Arthur J. Burks, and H. Warner Munn turned out disturbing yarns that have stood the test of time only to be resurrected nearly a century later.   This collection features those early authors across thirteen spooky stories from the impactful years of 1923 to 1925 that are best enjoyed at the witching hour.   Reading ritual aside, you’ve been warned.

    From the sunny shores of Hawaii to the heart of Nebraska, a mystery awaits. 
    Cassandra Sato's leap from the tropical paradise of Hawaii to the rustic charm of Nebraska was supposed to be her big career move, not a detour into danger. But at Morton College, where the leaves are barely falling before secrets start piling up, Cassandra's fresh start is anything but serene. 
    The sudden death of a deaf student thrusts her into an investigation denser than the Nebraska cornfields. Amidst the swirling autumn leaves, Cassandra finds herself untangling a web of campus intrigue that threatens to derail her career and possibly her life. 
    Morton College promised a new chapter, but academic chaos reigns. Lance Erickson, a deaf work-study student with secrets of his own, becomes an unlikely ally. Add to the puzzle a sheriff with too many questions, a relentless reporter, a boss who prefers problems to stay buried, and a stalker who thinks he’s Zorro. 
    Each clue pulls Cassandra deeper into danger and seems to grease the rungs of the academic ladder she's precariously climbing. Can Cassandra uncover the truth before she slips off the ladder and becomes the next unfortunate headline? Grab your front-row seat to this masterclass in resilience, academic survival, and sleuthing.
