  Step into the heart of the Canadian wilderness, where isolation and ancient folklore blur the line between sanity and terror. The Wendigo by Algernon Blackwood is a chilling early 20th-century supernatural tale that explores mankind’s most primal fears. When a hunting expedition veers into the unknown, whispers of an ancient spirit turn into a terrifying reality. Atmospheric and psychologically intense, this novella is a masterclass in slow-building horror that lingers long after the final page.

  A Daemon in Jade - A Short...

  What is evil? Is it simply a concept, a description applied to the actions of men or to incidents that impact them or is it something more? An external force eternal and ever present that can weave itself in slithering pathways into our thoughts and deeds? Is it possible for instance, for an object to be evil? For it to reek, on a level detectable beyond our normal senses of corruption, or wickedness and of rot? could it leave upon the skin and the mind like a residue a clinging film of something that is not only older than man but hateful of him? 
  These are the questions that circulate around the Daemon in Jade, the massive sculpture that the ancients chose to bury head down and disregard. Not simply forgetting, but deliberately, purposely shunning the hideous thing as wretched and unclean.

  There is something about the number 3.    
   
  The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two.   
   
  Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois.  It seems good things usually come in threes. 
   
  Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating.

  Including works by members of the original Lovecraft Circle: Robert Bloch, Robert E. Howard, Frank Belknap Long, and Clark Ashton Smith. 
  In the depths of human imagination lies a realm in which ancient gods stir in their slumbers, where forbidden knowledge teeters on the edge of consciousness, and where cosmic horror threatens to cast its suffocating veil over reality. This is the world of the Cthulhu Mythos, the creation of one of the most enigmatic and influential writers of the 20th century, H. P. Lovecraft. 
  Opening with an introduction to the Great Old One himself in The Call of Cthulhu, we’ll explore the works of those who contributed their own tales to the mythos, expanding and enriching it with their unique perspectives and distinctive voices. 
  We'll encounter unimaginable entities such as Azathoth and Hastur—those uncanny beings whose mere existence defies comprehension. And we'll meet the intrepid human beings who dared to seek out forbidden knowledge, often to their peril, coming up against the boundaries of human understanding and the terrifying implications of cosmic insignificance. 
  Prepare to be drawn into a world where reality is but a fragile mask—where the unknown lurks just beneath the surface. Steel yourself for a voyage that examines the unfathomable, the unimaginable, the inescapable. What became of those who answered The Call of the Old Ones?
