Showing results for "August" in Horror

Lilith Clarke is supposed to be dead: murdered by the vicious King Oren, her blood staining a field of daisies. But death would have been merciful. After years of having no name, she is finally given a title: Queen of Umbra. But it will cost her everything. Lily is now bound to King Asher, the most powerful and brutal shadow divinus in all of Omnia. Forced to rule in secret, she slowly loses herself to the darkness. She fears it will swallow her whole.

The house does not have electricity, and the eccentric nature of the family is displayed through the grotesque artwork that lines the walls of the manor. As Noelle wrestles with her own struggles with understanding her connection to death, she is also plunged headfirst into the dark mysteries surrounding the August family. The dying patriarch who she is strangely never able to see. The head of the household who is incapable of giving a straight answer. And a boy unable to speak but clearly terrified of something.

Pursued by one demon into the clutches of another, the ordinary life of Mary Ann "Polly" Nichols is made extraordinary by horrible, inhuman circumstance. Jack the Ripper's first victim comes to life in this sensitive and intimate fictionalized portrait, from humble beginnings, to building a family with an abusive husband, her escape into poverty and the workhouse, alcoholism, and finally abandoned on the streets of London where the Whitechapel Murderer found her.

By 1937, Ace Magazines tried to enter the field with Eerie Stories. Unfortunately, it didn't catch on, only lasting one issue before folding. This is that issue. Eerie Stories returns in these vintage pulp tales, reissued for today’s listeners in audiobook format.

Selbst Freunden der klassischen Kriminalerzählung ist nicht immer bekannt, dass Edgar Allan Poe mit Auguste Dupin und seinem ihn stets begleitenden Freund und Bewunderer schon lange vor Conan Doyle ein geniales 'Spürnasenteam' erfunden hatte. Da Dupin Franzose ist, ermittelt er natürlich in Paris und nicht wie Sherlock Holmes in London. Beide genießen Respekt und ehrfürchtige Bewunderung der Polizei ihres Heimatlandes.

I’ve been having the same dream now for a long time. It’s a recurring dream…or nightmare. I can never tell for sure because the emotion is different. The details are the always the same—the smells, the sounds of my shoes, etc.—but I never know what’s on the other side of those doors. I do now.
