[German] - Die schwarze Serie, Folge 28: Der Wendigo

Es sollte ein herbstlicher Jagdausflug in die kanadischen Wälder werden. Doch die Elche machen sich rar, und so teilen sich Dr. Cathcart und sein Jagdführer Hank Davies sowie Lennox Simpson, Dr. Cathcarts Neffe, und dessen Jagdbegleiter Joseph Defago in zwei Gruppen auf, um die großen Geweihträger endlich aufzuspüren. Doch sie sind nicht allein in den tiefen Wäldern, die jenseits der zivilisierten Welt liegen. Es ist der Wendigo, der umgeht, so sagt man. Eine uralte Sagengestalt, die, wenn man sie erst einmal gesehen hat, ihre Opfer nicht mehr loslässt, und mit ihnen davonfliegt in die dunkle Nacht ...

Algernon Blackwood, Yves Holland (Author), Daniel Zillmann, Erich Räuker, Patrick Holtheuer, Patrick Winczewski, Uve Teschner, Wanja Gerick, Yvonne Greitzke (Narrator)

The Foundations of Fiction - Psychological Horror

In this series we turn the pages of classic short stories to put together the literary building blocks of how a particular genre or theme began, how it built its foundations to become the well-loved and well-worn genre that it is today.Do authors have the same ideas at more or less the same time? Or can they sniff out an opportunity as to which way the tastes of an audience are moving. Success undoubtedly builds success and in literary terms we can more politely say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and the surest way to reach a hungry readership is to build on the fortune and flair of your literary colleagues. The mind is perhaps our greatest resource. When our heads are working well, feeling positive, the world seems a much easier place to navigate. But in this volume our authors ponder a different question for us. A horror story of the mind that cleverly opens us up to dread and despair that evil can saunter through, causing agony and mayhem as it takes us into the shadows. 01 - Foundations of Fiction - Psychological Horror - An Introduction2 - The Pit and the Pendulum by Edgar Allan Poe3 - The Picture In The House by H P Lovecraft4 - The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman5 - The Devil In Manuscript by Nathaniel Hawthorne6 - The Tell Tale Heart by Edgar Allan Poe7 - Was It An Illusion.

Success undoubtedly builds success and in literary terms we can more politely say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and the surest way to reach a hungry readership is to build on the fortune and flair of your literary colleagues. A crime is committed and the forces of good and the law go to work on deducing and apprehending a culprit. However, when those detectives have some rather special skills that involve the paranormal, stories become something more. Logic becomes elastic as the forces of good come into contact with malevolent and dark forces that harbour evil and ill-will. However, with the aid of the paranormal, the Occult Detective will be getting to the truth in ways that only they were born too.01 - Foundations of Fiction - Paranormal Detective - An Introduction2 - Carnacki, The Ghost Finder - No1 - The Gateway of the Monster by William Hope Hodgson3 - Mark of the Beast By Rudyard Kipling4 - The Death Hound by Violet Mary Firth writing as Dion Fortune5 - John Silence, Physician Extraordinary by Algernon Blackwood6 - The Man With No Face by Gertrude Minnie Robins7 - The Dead Hand by L T Meade and Robert Eustace8 - The Moving Finger by Rose Champion de Crespigny9 - Ineligible by Aleister Crowley10 - An Expiation by Arabella Kenealy11 - Green Tea by Sheridan Le Fanu12 - The Story of the Green House, Wallington by Allen Upward13 - The House of the Black Evil by Eric Purves14 - The Story of 'The Spaniards', Hammersmith by Kate and Hesketh Pritchard15 - The Murder in an Omnibus by Harold Begbie

Atmospheric Horror Stories

Horror stories are designed from the onset to create a story that will suddenly go very wrong and create a sheer horror and hell not only for the characters in the story but by extension ourselves. In this carefully crafted volume, our authors use their talents to create an atmosphere that might start with tingling tension but builds and builds until we can trust nothing but the certainty of the next few words and the wrath they will bring.1 - Atmospheric Horror Stories - An Introduction2 - The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving3 - Oh Whistle and I'll Come to You My Lad by M R James4 - For the Blood is the Life by F Marion Crawford5 - The Spectral Hand by Jean Lorrain6 - A Diagnosis of Death by Ambrose Bierce7 - Let Loose by Mary Cholmondeley8 - The Kit Bag by Algernon Blackwood9 - The Prediction by Mary Diana Dods writing as David Lyndsey10 - Vampirismus or Aurelia by E T A Hoffman11 - Caterpillars by E F Benson12 - Smee by A M Burrage13 - Count Magnus by M R James14 - The Crimson Weaver by R Murray Gilchrist15 - The Shadows on the Wall by Mary E Wilkins Freeman16 - The Villa Désirée by May Sinclair17 - The Empty House by Algernon Blackwood18 - The Open Door - Part 1 by Margaret Oliphant19 - The Open Door - Part 2 by Margaret Oliphant20 - The Ghost at the Rath by Rosa Mulholland21 - Wake Not the Dead - Part 1 by Ernst Raupach22 - Wake Not the Dead - Part 2 by Ernst Raupach

The Foundations of Fiction - Haunted House

In this series we turn the pages of classic short stories to put together the literary building blocks of how a particular genre or theme began, how it built its foundations to become the well-loved and well-worn genre that it is today.Do authors have the same ideas at more or less the same time?

Success undoubtedly builds success and in literary terms we can more politely say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and the surest way to reach a hungry readership is to build on the fortune and flair of your literary colleagues. The dark forces of history have a way of settling in houses, usually large and rambling, but also small and nestled in a city, and from there all sorts of uneasy happenings begin. Authors have very playful imaginations, as well as some very disturbing ideas as they escalate the interactions between people and the growing source of terror that is with us and around us.
