Weird Tales - 18 Lost Sci-Fi Short Stories Published in Weird Tales Magazine from the 1800s, 1920s, 30s, 40s and 50s: Haunting Visions and Strange Worlds from Lovecraft, Poe, Howard, and More

"Weird Tales brings together 18 unforgettable lost science fiction and dark fantasy short stories, from Weird Tales Magazine—from the late 1800s through the golden decades of the 1920s, ’30s, ’40s, and ’50s. This collection plunges you into shadow-soaked ruins, forbidden knowledge, alien geometries, living houses, and terrors that refuse to remain buried. These are stories where science blurs into nightmare, curiosity becomes a fatal flaw, and the universe proves far stranger—and more hostile—than humanity ever imagined. You’ll encounter ancient cities abandoned for reasons best left undiscovered, unseen entities lurking just beyond perception, and experiments that open doors no one should walk through. Weird Tales delivers the raw imagination that defined early speculative fiction. Includes these classic tales: - Cool Air by H. P. Lovecraft - The Beast-Helper by Frank Belknap Long - The Artist and the Door by Dorothy Quick - Spawn of Inferno by Hugh B. Cave - In the Walls of Eryx by H. P. Lovecraft & Kenneth Sterling - Escape by Paul Ernst - The Nameless City by H. P. Lovecraft - The Last Drive by Carl Jacobi - The Unnamable by H. P. Lovecraft - The Shunned House by H. P. Lovecraft - Retribution by George T. Spillman - The Fearsome Touch of Death by Robert E. Howard - The Tell-Tale Heart by Edgar Allan Poe - He That Hath Wings by Edmond Hamilton - The Eater of Souls by Henry Kuttner - The Conradi Affair by August Derleth & Carl W.
