Download or read book The Supernatural and Fantastic in Short Detective Fiction written by Laird R. Blackwell and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2020-10-30 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although fantasy and supernatural literature have long and celebrated histories, many critics contend that the fantastic and the supernatural have no place in the logical, rational, world of the detective story. This book is the first extensive study of the fantastic in detective fiction and it explores the highly debated question of whether detective fiction and the fantastic can comfortably coexist. The "locked room" mystery--which often uses the fantastic as a red herring to eventually be debunked by reason and logic--has long been among the most popular subgenres of detective fiction. This book also explores stories featuring almost supernaturally gifted detectives, stories where the supernatural is truly encountered, and stories with ambiguous endings. Close to 500 detective stories from 1841 to 2000, in which the fantastic or supernatural plays a central role, are discussed and analyzed. Although not all the stories are judged to be successful as detective tales, in the great majority, the fantastic enlivens the tale and deepens the mystery without weakening the detective elements.

Book excerpt: Former cemetery tour guide and reluctant medium Pepper Martin is thrilled when she gets her job back—with a promotion. But her new position is turning out to be more than she can handle, especially with the dead clamoring for her attention… As Garden View Cemetery’s new community relations manager, Pepper is feeling overwhelmed with planning the annual party to attract new sponsors. Luckily, some of the cemetery’s permanent residents have volunteered to give Pepper a ghostly hand, and she’s not about to turn away the help. But when a murdered ghost starts leaving puddles everywhere, Pepper quickly finds her newly acquired free time occupied. The dead man is her ex-boyfriend Quinn’s former partner Jack Haggarty—and he isn’t going away until Pepper figures out the real reason behind his murder. And while Quinn recently had a brush with the afterlife, he still isn’t ready to accept Pepper’s abilities—or offer his skills as a detective. Now, Pepper has to convince Quinn she’s the real deal and investigate Jack’s death—before someone else meets their end in a watery grave...

Book excerpt: Do psychics have special powers, allowing them to succeed where ordinary police work fails? How often do the police actually enlist psychics in solving crimes, and what do they really think of these paranormal "experts"? These are just some of the questions discussed in this illuminating study of those who supposedly use extrasensory powers to help solve crimes. Famed paranormal investigator Joe Nickell assembled a psychic "task force" of experienced researchers - investigative writers, professional magicians, private detectives, and paranormal investigators - and challenged them to examine the claims of a famous paranormal crimebuster. Among the "psychic sleuths" examined are Greta Alexander, Dorothy Allison, Gerard Croiset, Peter Hurkos, Phil Jordan, Rosemarie Kerr, Noreen Reiner, and Bill Ward. Noted psychologist James E. Alcock offers an assessment of the psychics' claims in light of the investigative reports. Nickell's distinguished team of investigators includes Michael R. Dennett, Professor Kenneth Feder, Henry Gordon, Jim Lippard, Ward Lucas, Professor Michael Park, Stephen Peterson, Dr. Gary Posner, and Professor Lee Roger Taylor. Psychic Sleuths will excite the curiosity of both skeptics and believers, and all who are puzzled by psychic claims and paranormal mysteries.

"When I say I am called Valmont, the name will convey no impression to the reader, one way or another. My occupation is that of private detective in London, but if you ask any policeman in Paris who Valmont was he will likely be able to tell you, unless he is a recent recruit. If you ask him where Valmont is now, he may not know, yet I have a good deal to do with the Parisian police." (The Triumph of Eugéne Valmont) Robert Barr (1849–1912) was a Scottish-Canadian short story writer and novelist, born in Glasgow, Scotland. His famous detective character Eugéne Valmont, fashioned after Sherlock Holmes, is said to be the inspiration behind Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot. Barr also wrote two parodies of Holmes as a form of flattery to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in the fashion of other such parodies being written at that time. And in spite of these parodies the two remained good friends all through their lives. A must read for all Holmes' enthusiasts!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An ancient enemy plots in the shadows. In 1960, a quaint vacation town in the Smoky Mountains was torn apart by a mysterious explosion. People who'd lived there for generations were forced to leave, turning their beloved home into a ghost town. Until, under the cover of night, someone else moved in. Or perhaps something. Six decades later, the surrounding towns have fallen into a state of neglect and decay, forgotten by the outside world. In places like this, it's easy for people to go missing. But dozens of people? Hundreds? Detective Tristan Sidders seems to be the only person keeping track, and he has a strange theory to explain the disappearances. He believes a powerful mob rules these mountains and that every misfortune ties back to them. Only Hyla and Lizeth Frontenac will listen to Sidders, but the more they listen, the closer this mysterious mob moves in. And then a strange old man appears, spouting threats and prophecies too bizarre to be believed. Prophecies that threaten the entire world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strangers, killers, and liars are everywhere. A devastating ice storm has crippled the sleepy Adirondack hamlet Lizeth Frontenac calls home. There's no power, no phones, no way in or out. So when a dead man is found on the side of the road, encased in ice, no one in town knows what to make of him. Where did he come from? Who shot him in the gut? Why is he dressed in clothes from another time? Over the next few days, Lizeth and her sister Hyla take refuge with ten of their neighbors to wait out the storm. Tensions run high as cabin fever kicks in, stirring up old grudges and new conflicts. So when two of their number vanish into thin air, the sisters don't know who to trust. The only clues are bullet holes in the ice and a stranger in the woods. A stranger who knows Lizeth, who has all the answers. And a man who connects everyone in unexpected and impossible ways.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A little girl spins a hateful web. On Halloween night, Nelly Huggett's mother chases her through the woods, screaming venom, knife in hand. Gillian isn't a nice woman, but this is different. She is different, strange, not herself. Nelly's father has been acting odd, too, and her brother… So Nelly does what any other precocious ten-year-old would do--she calls supernatural investigators and sisters Hyla and Lizeth Frontenac, in the hopes they might find out what happened to her family. But in the Huggett house, perched on the rugged Maine coast, the sisters discover that nothing is what it seems. Not the Huggetts and certainly not Nelly. Is she just spirited? Misunderstood? Or is she a liar, like everyone says? She is a dangerous foe, this little girl, with a devious imagination and a dark secret. A dangerous foe whose deception just might ensnare the sisters forever.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dark side of the soul is a terrifying place. "I'm about to be murdered!" With this message, an intruder wakes up Lizeth Frontenac in the middle of the night. He gives her his name, his address, and begs for her help, then vanishes into thin air before she can do anything. Lizeth doubts her own eyes. Was the man just a dream? A hallucination? In the morning she learns he was neither, for a body is found a state away, in the same town, on the same road. And he wasn't the only one. On the same night, under the same full moon, all across the country, eleven other people are also killed. When a victim's distraught boyfriend seeks out Lizeth and her sister Hyla for help, they are plunged into a mystery so intricate, tracking murders so perplexing and numerous as to boggle the mind. Is it a ritual? A cult? One killer or a dozen? The answer keeps slipping through their fingers. And one of their own might be next.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This two-volume set offers comprehensive coverage of horror literature that spans its deep history, dominant themes, significant works, and major authors, such as Stephen King, Edgar Allan Poe, and Anne Rice, as well as lesser-known horror writers. Many of today's horror story fans—who appreciate horror through movies, television, video games, graphic novels, and other forms—probably don't realize that horror literature is not only one of the most popular types of literature but one of the oldest. People have always been mesmerized by stories that speak to their deepest fears. Horror Literature through History shows 21st-century horror fans the literary sources of their favorite entertainment and the rich intrinsic value of horror literature in its own right. Through profiles of major authors, critical analyses of important works, and overview essays focused on horror during particular periods as well as on related issues such as religion, apocalypticism, social criticism, and gender, readers will discover the fascinating early roots and evolution of horror writings as well as the reciprocal influence of horror literature and horror cinema. This unique two-volume reference set provides wide coverage that is current and compelling to modern readers—who are of course also eager consumers of entertainment. In the first section, overview essays on horror during different historical periods situate works of horror literature within the social, cultural, historical, and intellectual currents of their respective eras, creating a seamless narrative of the genre's evolution from ancient times to the present. The second section demonstrates how otherwise unrelated works of horror have influenced each other, how horror subgenres have evolved, and how a broad range of topics within horror—such as ghosts, vampires, religion, and gender roles—have been handled across time. The set also provides alphabetically arranged reference entries on authors, works, and specialized topics that enable readers to zero in on information and concepts presented in the other sections.
