Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marjorie Bowen is remembered primarily as a distinguished historical novelist (pseudonym of Gabrielle Margaret Vere Campbell - 1886-1952), but her vast literary legacy additionally embraces several supremely accomplished tales of terror. Miss Bowen's ruthlessly honest portrayal of human nature and masterful knowledge of period settings combine with her keen sensitivity for the macabre in a group of eerie tales that often scale the heights of starkly spectral fear. Prefaced with an introduction by the author, the stories include: "The Hidden Ape, " "Kecksies, " "Raw Material, " "The Avenging of Ann Leete, " "The Crown Derby Plate, " "The Sign-Painter and the Crystal Fishes, " "Scoured Silk, " "The Breakdown, " "One Remained Behind, " "The House by the Poppy Field, " "Florence Flannery, " and "Half Past Two."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Collected Twilight Stories' is a compilation of eighteen of Marjorie Bowen's supernatural horror stories. 'Marjorie Bowen' is a nom de plume of the British Author Gabrielle Margaret Vere Long (1885-1952). Sally Benson in The New Yorker (1965) describes her work under the pseudonym 'Joseph Shearing' - "[she] is a painstaking researcher, a superb writer, a careful technician, and a master of horror. There is no one else quite like [her]."Gabrielle's father was an alchoholic and he left the family home when she was young, eventually being found dead on a London street. Consequently, her writings were the main source of income for her family. She was married twice, initially for four years to a Sicilian named Zefferino Emilio Constanza, who died of turberculosis, and then to Arthur L. Long.This collection comprises the following eighteen short stories: Scoured Silk; The Breakdown; One Remained Behind - A Romance A La Mode Gothique; The House By The Poppy Field; Half-Past Two; Elsie's Lonely Afternoon; The Extraordinary Adventure Of Mr John Proudie; Ann Mellor's Lover; Florence Flannery; Kecksies; The Avenging Of Ann Leete; The Bishop Of Hell; The Crown Derby Plate; The Fair Hair Of Ambrosine; The Housekeeper; Raw Material; The Hidden Ape; The Sign-Painter And The Crystal Fishes

Book excerpt: Collected Twilight Stories by Marjorie Bowen is a collection of romance and drama stories about Humphrey Orford's despicable late wife Flora Orford and much, much more. Excerpt: "THIS is a tale that might be told in many ways and from various points of view; it has to be gathered from here and there—a letter, a report, a diary, a casual reference; in its day the thing was more than a passing wonder, and it left a mark of abiding horror on the neighborhood."

Book excerpt: This reference work covers the supernatural and speculative fiction published by Arkham House Publishers, Inc., of Sauk City, Wisconsin. In 1937, promising Wisconsin writer August Derleth decided to publish a collection of the stories of his recently deceased friend, H. P. Lovecraft. After two years of failed attempts, Derleth and another Lovecraft fan, Donald Wandrei, published the collection themselves under the name of Arkham. In the years that followed, Arkham House published the works of many of the foremost American and British writers of weird fiction, including Basil Copper, Lord Dunsany, Robert E. Howard, and Robert Bloch. Arkham published Ray Bradbury's first book, Dark Carnival, in 1947. The work begins with a history of the house and biography of August Derleth; it also includes a chapter on H. P. Lovecraft's connection to Arkham. The main body of the text consists of chronologically listed descriptions and current values of the more than 230 titles published by Arkham House and its two imprints, Mycroft & Moran and Stanton & Lee. These entries detail editions, reprints, special points, restoration, care, buying and selling, investment, and future trends. Other features include alphabetical indeces of titles and authors, lists of scarcity and value ranking, a list of annual stock lists and catalogs, and a bibliography of reference literature. The book is illustrated throughout with dust jacket reproductions and photographs.

Book excerpt: The Bishop of Hell and Other Stories by Marjorie Bowen is a collection of feminist tales about the hardship of women and haunting and dark supernatural happenings. Excerpt: "SHE who had been Florence Flannery noted with a careless eye the stains of wet on the dusty stairs, and with a glance ill-used to the observance of domesticities looked up for damp or dripping ceilings. The dim-walled staircase revealed nothing but more dust, yet this would serve as a peg for ill-humor to hang on, so Florence pouted."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1998 and covering a tradition ignored by most critics, this bibliography assembles and documents a large body of supernatural fiction written by women in English from the end of the 18th century to the present. These stories, the work of women whose literary reputations, personal histories, and bodies of work vary widely, challenge the narrow way in which supernatural literature has traditionally been regarded: they indicate a much richer and more complex set of literary responses to the supernatural than has been hitherto acknowledged. The writers included range from Ann Radcliffe and the Gothic novelists to Louisa May Alcott, Charlotte Gilman, and Edith Wharton to such modern writers as Elizabeth Bowen, Jean Rhys, Muriel Spark, and A.S. Byatt. The volume will be of interest to literary and cultural historians and of particular importance to women's studies scholars.

Book excerpt: Meet the women writers who defied convention to craft some of literature’s strangest tales, from Frankenstein to The Haunting of Hill House and beyond. Frankenstein was just the beginning: horror stories and other weird fiction wouldn’t exist without the women who created it. From Gothic ghost stories to psychological horror to science fiction, women have been primary architects of speculative literature of all sorts. And their own life stories are as intriguing as their fiction. Everyone knows about Mary Shelley, creator of Frankenstein, who was rumored to keep her late husband’s heart in her desk drawer. But have you heard of Margaret “Mad Madge” Cavendish, who wrote a science-fiction epic 150 years earlier (and liked to wear topless gowns to the theater)? If you know the astounding work of Shirley Jackson, whose novel The Haunting of Hill House was reinvented as a Netflix series, then try the psychological hauntings of Violet Paget, who was openly involved in long-term romantic relationships with women in the Victorian era. You’ll meet celebrated icons (Ann Radcliffe, V. C. Andrews), forgotten wordsmiths (Eli Colter, Ruby Jean Jensen), and today’s vanguard (Helen Oyeyemi). Curated reading lists point you to their most spine-chilling tales. Part biography, part reader’s guide, the engaging write-ups and detailed reading lists will introduce you to more than a hundred authors and over two hundred of their mysterious and spooky novels, novellas, and stories.
