An Adventure of a Professional Corpse - The Artificial Honeymoon: He Faked His Death—But the Honeymoon Was Real

"An Adventure of a Professional Corpse - The Artificial Honeymoon by H. Bedford–Jones - A Certain Young Man Finds Dying a Profitable Business. The secret of one of the strangest professions in the world. H. Bedford-Jones (1887–1949) was one of the most prolific and versatile writers of the pulp fiction era. Born in Napanee, Ontario, Canada, he moved to the United States and became a naturalized citizen in 1908. By 1914, just six years later, he published his first novel—launching a staggering literary career that would span more than three decades. Often called the “King of the Pulps,” Bedford-Jones wrote across nearly every genre imaginable: science fiction, fantasy, adventure, detective fiction, historical epics, and Westerns. At the height of his career, he was producing an extraordinary volume of work, sometimes publishing as many as a dozen stories in a single month. He wrote under dozens of pseudonyms, crafting over 1,000 stories, novels, and serials for legendary pulp magazines such as Argosy, All-Story Weekly, and Blue Book. In addition to his pulp fiction mastery, Bedford-Jones also worked as a journalist for the Boston Globe and published several volumes of poetry, showcasing his command of language beyond the pulp page. Whether writing swashbuckling historical tales or futuristic adventures, he brought energy, imagination, and craftsmanship to everything he touched. A true titan of popular fiction, H. Bedford-Jones helped shape the golden age of pulp storytelling—and left behind a legacy that still thrills readers today."

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.
