This is a compelling story of a family that survived a cataclysmic event, when a passing meteorite pulls the earth out of Axis and away from the sun. It is a story that is at the same time claustrophobic, about a family clinging to life in "the nest," and vast, as they must go to fetch frozen air in the frozen wastes in order to keep breathing. It's from the pen of Fritz Leiber, writer of fantasy, horror, and science fiction.

Fritz Leiber (1910-1992) was an influential American writer of fantasy, horror, and science fiction. He is best known for his sword-and-sorcery stories and his novel "Conjure Wife" (1943). Leiber's works often combined elements of fantasy, horror, and science fiction, and he coined the term "sword and sorcery." He is widely regarded as one of the most important figures in modern speculative fiction. "The Smoke Ghost" (1941) is a key example of urban weird fiction, blending horror, fantasy, and social commentary. The story explores themes of urban alienation and the horrors of modernity, as seen in other works like H.F. Arnold's "The Night Wire" (1926) and Leiber's "The Girl with the Hungry Eyes" (1949). These stories tap into the sense of disconnection and vulnerability that people experience in the face of rapid urbanization and technological change. Leiber's background in psychology and interest in Carl Jung's works are evident in "The Smoke Ghost." The titular entity can be interpreted as a manifestation of the Jungian Shadow archetype, representing the repressed aspects of the protagonist Catesby Wran's psyche and the collective unconscious of modern urban society. The climax of the story, in which Wran accepts the smoke ghost's dominion, can be seen as a twisted individuation process. "The Smoke Ghost" shares similarities with M.R. James's ghost stories, featuring a protagonist haunted by a supernatural entity embodying his deepest fears and anxieties. Both Leiber and James suggest that even rational individuals are not immune to the lure of the supernatural. However, Leiber's story is firmly rooted in the modern urban landscape, reflecting the anxieties of a rapidly changing world. Leiber's story also bears the influence of H.P. Lovecraft and cosmic horror. The smoke ghost can be seen as a manifestation of the cosmic horror lurking beneath the surface of modern urban life, defying easy categorization and understanding. The story's bleak ending echoes the cosmic pessimism in Lovecraft's work. However, Leiber brings the horror into the heart of the modern city, creating a kind of urban cosmic horror that transplants Lovecraftian themes into the gritty, mid-20th century metropolis.

Destiny Times Three by Fritz Leiber audiobook. Thorn and Clawly seek to present to the World Executive Committee some most disturbing findings, findings that indicate that we may not be alone within the nexus of realities, that there could be other worlds existing parallel to our own, springing forth from a specific point in time. That in and of itself may not constitute a significant problem, but what if one of these worlds was not content with their lot in life and were organizing a secret invasion into our utopian reality?

As the DCC RPG served as a renaissance for my understanding of fantasy gaming, Michael's adventures and discourse about them (as I listened avidly on any podcast he would appear on) would help me understand a little bit more of this adventure craft! When I got to learn more about Fritz Leiber, fell in love with Lankhmar and heard Mr. Curtis was going to be the lead designer in the DCC adaptation of that world to the RPG scene I was thrilled. And it's not surprising DCC Lankhmar is my favorite flavor of DCC RPG! But in this chat we talked about a lot more than just gaming. We talked art, life journeys, how we fit or don't around other people, unique experiences and a lot of other weird stuff! So listen up and get weird with us!

Troy and I dive into the Universal Inner Sanctum films with a conversation about the first two of the series. There is much discussion of Lon Chaney's pencil-thin mustache and some speculation about the role that Gale Sondergaard might have had in each movie if her casting had worked out.   CALLING DR. DEATH (1943) presents Chaney as a successful psychologist who uses hypnotism as a treatment method. His marriage is falling apart but his cheating wife has no wish to be divorced causing him quite a bit of mental stress culminating in a blackout weekend and murder by blunt instrument. Did the good doctor kill his wife or is something more nefarious going on? We wade through lots of whispered voiceover from Lon and watch a Columbo prototype played by J. Carroll Naish hound the obvious suspect until the guilty party makes the wrong move. This is a very well-directed film and we talk about the director's clever visual choices as we go through the story.   WEIRD WOMAN (1944) is the first screen adaptation of Fritz Leiber's story ‘Conjure Wife' and gives us Lon Chaney miscast as an academic genius who returns from a book writing trip with a wife he robbed from the cradle. OK – the film doesn't seem to want us to think about that fact except that Lon keeps referring to her as a child and they sleep in separate bedrooms. The 1940's were a strange time. The film has an amazing cast with the great Evelyn Ankers cast against type as a mean-spirited ex-girlfriend. The misogyny levels are cranked pretty high and this is the start of the Inner Sanctum series' cliché of Chaney's character being the most desirable male on the planet which means there is some ‘cringe' involved in watching this one. But the film is very good and we discuss the surprising hatred directed at it from some fan quarters.   If you want to give us your opinion of the Inner Sanctum movies thebloodypit@gmail.com is the address to send your notes. We'd love to hear from you and thank you for listening to the show!

From “Startling Stories Magazine” in May 1952, the first story ever published written by Robert Zacks, From Outer Space August Derleth grew up in Sauk City, Wisconsin. He wrote his first fiction story at 13. His stories were rejected 40 times over 3 years before he sold “Bat's Belfry” to “Weird Tales Magazine” in 1926. “Birkett's Twelfth Corpse” can be found in “Strange Stories Magazine” in August 1940.Evan Hunter has been on the podcast before. He wrote one of my favorites, “The Plagiarist From Rigel IV”. “Only one question seemed important in this huge space venture: Who was flying where?” We'll find our story on page 57 of the May 1952 issue of “If Worlds of Science Fiction”, Welcome, Martians! Up next a short tale about a strange entity on a distant world. Our strange story was written by Henry Kuttner and this is his first short sci-fi story on the podcast. He sold his first story, “The Graveyard Rats” to “Weird Tales Magazine” in 1936. Kuttner contributed several stories to the Cthulhu Mythos genre including today's story.

I have been pleasantly entertained by your back stories and amounts of historical information. So informative, entertaining and enlightening! Thank you for this gem! T from Texas” Thanks to both of you for your reviews!Our author, Winston Marks, is one of the reasons we started narrating vintage sci-fi and one of the reasons we call these stories lost sci-fi. About two years ago I started thinking about narrating science fiction because I'm a sci-fi fan. I did some research and discovered thousands of vintage sci-fi short stories that had never been available as audiobooks. Seemed a shame that these amazing stories weren't available, so I decided to call these stories lost sci-fi, started selling these sci-fi short stories and a few months later The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast was born. Winston Marks could be the poster boy for Lost Sci-Fi. I like his writing and yet I couldn't find any of his short stories available in audio.  A writer strives for realism–but to this boy it came easy. He lived his scenes! We'll find our story on page 77 in the April 1958 Imagination Stories of Science and Fantasy, The Mind Digger by Winston Marks…Next week on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, I have no idea why, but next week's story is one of my favorites, She Brought Death to All Who Walked Behind Her!
