Startling Stories
WEIRD TALES has built its success on startling stories such as can be found in no other magazine; stories with a real thrill; eery stories such as Edgar Allan Poe used to write; tales of tremendous dooms that menace the earth (such as "The Moon Menace" in this issue); tales of weird monsters; ghost-tales, and stories of the supernatural; tales of devil-worship, witchcraft, werewolves, and vampires; eldritch tales of shuddery horror; bizarre and fantastic tales; fascinating orientales; mystery stories; weird-scientific tales that plumb the future with prophetic eye. Among the many thrilling stories in the next few issues will be:
THE TIME-RAIDER, by Edmond Hamilton
A startling serial story of an entity from thousands of years in the future, that reaches back through Time for its victims—by the author of "The Moon Menace."
THE INVADING HORDE, by Arthur J. Burks
A superb weird-scientific novelette that looks far into the future, when Asiatic hordes attack America in giant submarines from the Atlantic—a tale of monopters, death-rays, and terrific battles in the air.
THE LORD OF THE TARN, by G. G. Pendarves
A shuddery tale of monstrous cats, the diabolical Eorl of Cumberland, and evil rites in the spectral abbey on Monk's Rock.
THE RED BRAIN, by Donald Wandrei
A tale of cosmic space—the stars blotted out by great dust-clouds engulfing the universe, and only the efforts of the Red Brain to drive back the swirling seas of dust.
PICKMAN'S MODEL, by H. P. Lovecraft
An eldritch tale of the cellars in a New England city, and unutterable monstrosities that crept from behind the crumbling walls—a horror-tale by the author of "The Outsider" and "The Rats in the Walls."
SALADIN'S THRONE-RUG, by E. Hoffmann Price
A fascinating story set IN Chicago, but not OF Chicago, for it breathes of spices and incense and the weird witchery of the Orient—a tale of a strange and eery murder.
THE POLTERGEIST, by Seabury Quinn
The old-fashioned ghost is a rarity in WEIRD TALES, but here is one that satisfies all requirements—a fascinating tale of Jules de Grandin.
