    About this ebook

    Emil Petaja (1915 - 2000) was an American science fiction and fantasy writer whose career spanned seven decades. He was the author of 13 published novels, nearly 150 short stories, numerous poems, and a handful of books and articles on various subjects. Though he wrote science fiction, fantasy, horror stories, detective fiction, and poetry, Petaja considered his work part of an older tradition of "weird fiction." You can find echoes not only of H.P. Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard in his work, but previous generations of weird authors such as Poe, Blackwood, and E.F. Benson. This volume includes 10 stories and a poem:


    MONSIEUR BLUEBEARD

    LIVE EVIL

    SKYDRIFT

    THE DARK BALCONY

    THE HUNGRY GHOST

    THE INSISTENT GHOST

    THE JONAH

    THE MUSIC-BOX FROM HELL

    VOTARESS

    THE INTRUDER

    MARMOK (poem)
