A remote New England village. Dark rumours swirl among its lonely hills. Whispers of strange rites, of a family line touched by shadows, haunt the woods and starlit nights. Something stirs where the old stones lie, and the boundary between the known and the unseen begins to thin. In my Halloween tradition, the tale chosen is “The Dunwich Horror”—a story rich in mystery, and alive with Lovecraft's trademark unease. First published in Weird Tales, April 1929. Collected in "The Outsider and Others" by Arkham House, 1939. H.P. Lovecraft (1890–1937) was an American writer whose cosmic horror stories explored the limits of knowledge and the fragility of sanity. His influenced echoes through horror, science fiction, and popular culture to this day.

fWotD Episode 3096: Oriental Stories Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Sunday, 26 October 2025, is Oriental Stories.Oriental Stories, later retitled The Magic Carpet Magazine, was an American pulp magazine published by Popular Fiction and edited by Farnsworth Wright. It was launched in 1930 under the title Oriental Stories as a companion to Popular Fiction's Weird Tales, and carried stories with far eastern settings, including some fantasy. Contributors included Robert E. Howard, Frank Owen, and E. Hoffman Price. In 1932 publication was paused after the Summer issue; it was relaunched in 1933 under the title The Magic Carpet Magazine, with an expanded editorial policy that now included any story set in an exotic location, including other planets.Some science fiction began to appear alongside the fantasy and adventure material as a result, including work by Edmond Hamilton. Wright obtained stories from H. Bedford Jones, who was a popular pulp writer, and Seabury Quinn. Most of the covers of The Magic Carpet Magazine were by Margaret Brundage, including her first sale; Brundage later became well-known as a cover artist for Weird Tales. Competition from established pulps in the same niche, such as Adventure, was too strong, and after five issues under the new title the magazine ceased publication.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:01 UTC on Sunday, 26 October 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Oriental Stories on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Matthew.

As this is a horror podcast, and may not be for everyone.  In particular, this story is about necrophilia, or as we refer to it, "corpse snuggling." There's also brief mention of suicide as a viable out for the main character. Finally, there's a fairly long conversation about the nature of evil and how parricide (the killing of one's parents) figures in the balance of evil. We kinda go back to that over and over in this one.Claire mentioned Jonica's Island, which was published in 1945. Claire says, "check it out!"We never solved the mystery of "what was Tod thinking of" when he suggested a) Wuthering Heights has a plot element of indenturing, and b) that it takes place in Nova Scotia. Tod was thinking of Anne of Green Gables, which is, indeed, set in NS, Canada.

También conocido como "El horror en la playa Martin" (por su título original en inglés, The Horror at Martin's Beach) el relato corto de H. P. Lovecraft y Sonia H. Greene nos narra la historia de un marino y una criatura extraña que después de una furtiva batalla en el mar, otro ser, ominosamente mayor que el primero busca venganza. Fue escrito en junio de 1922 y publicado inicialmente como "El Monstruo Invisible" en noviembre de 1923 en la revista Weird Tales.En lo personal, estos relatos cortos de Lovecraft me parecen bastante agradables para conocer la percepción del terror y la realidad que se vivía en los años 20 del siglo pasado.Espero lo disfruten y me dejen por aquí, en los comentarios, si tienen interés en escuchar algún relato en especial o si quieren algo de un autor de su gusto.

Talman reportedly wasn't entirely satisfied with the revisions but accepted them.So, a year later, the story was published in the August 1927 issue of Weird Tales magazine on page 251, Two Black Bottles by H.

Cuando estaba empezando con Historias de Espantos por Fernando Palacios, quería grabar relatos que no fueran solo de Stephen King (por entonces estaba sólo grabando ESO/IT) y decidí probar con 3 relatos (Aire Frío, Horror en el Cementerio & Horror en Playa Martin), que a decir verdad, hoy en día cuando los escucho, me doy cuenta de todos los errores que cometí. En esta víspera del 5to Aniversario del Canal, decidí regrabarlos. Este es el segundo que publico.Horror en el cementerio (The Horror in the Burying-Ground) es un relato de terror de la escritora norteamericana Hazel Heald, escrito en colaboración con H.P. Lovecraft, y publicado en la edición de mayo de 1937 de la revista Weird Tales. A pesar de que la idea principal de este relato fuese planteada por Hazel, Howard tiene mayor reconocimiento debido a que ya era un autor de renombre, y de cierta manera, fueron sus aportaciones las que terminaron de pulirlo.En lo personal, disfruté mucho esta historia; ya que ¿quién no tiene miedo a ser enterrado vivo?

Cráneos en las estrellas fue publicado originalmente en enero de 1929 en la revista Weird Tales, Cráneos en las estrellas es una joya del pulp escrita por Robert E. Howard, maestro del relato breve y creador del mítico Conan el Bárbaro. En esta historia, Howard se adentra en el terror sobrenatural con tintes de espada y brujería, presentándonos a Solomon Kane, un puritano errante cuya espada es tan afilada como su determinación moral. Con su prosa intensa y atmósfera opresiva, Howard combina violencia, misticismo y oscuridad en un relato breve, pero cargado de tensión y simbolismo. Una historia que late al ritmo de lo oculto, perfecta para los oídos inquietos que buscan cruzar la delgada línea entre el mundo de los vivos y lo que acecha más allá. Musicas: - 01.
