Horror Stories - Satan'S Five Days eBook

At first they heard a vast roaring as of a thousand waterfalls, and then the great blackness swept over them. It paused for a moment and when it went on no sign of life remained! The whole country trembled, for what were mere men against the Black Friar and his plague of horror? Horror Stories! The dark companion to Dime Mystery Magazine. Created to showcase stories too horrible for Terror Tales. The third of the triumvirate of fear pulps. This brand of fiction came to be called Weird Menace. The mystery-and-menace formula proved so successful that publisher Popular Publications produced Dime Mystery Magazine, Terror Tales and Horror Stories. These three dominated the Weird Menace genre all through the 1930s. Blurbed as mystery-horror stories instead of mystery-terror, Horror Stories was formulated differently that its companion titles. Damn the plot. Pour on the menace! This ebook contains a classic story from the pages of Horror Stories magazine, reissued for todays readers in electronic format.
