Tales That Thrill

The most brilliant selection of stories ever offered by any magazine, highly imaginative tales such as can be obtained nowhere else, veritable gems of weird literature, will enliven the pages of the forthcoming issues of WEIRD TALES. Strange and unusual stories by many authors, masterpieces of gripping fiction, pseudo-scientific tales replete with interest and crammed with thrills, gooseflesh tales of unutterable horror, stories that dip into the future with the eye of prophecy, tales of werewolves and black magic, ghost-stories that make the hair rise on end, fascinating tales of cosmic space. Some of the gems in the next few issues are:

SPIDER-BITE, By Robert S. Carr

A tale of great white Egyptian tomb-spiders, resurrected mummies, cataleptic trances and precious jewels—a story of eery thrills.

THE VENGEANCE OF INDIA, By Seabury Quinn

Another story about Jules de Grandin—an eldritch graveyard tale, of Hindoo vengeance, and corpses that rise in the night.

GHOSTS OF STEAMBOAT COULEE, By Arthur J. Burks

As thrilling a ghost-story as over was penned—a night of terror and vivid horror—a tale that will seud the cold shivers up and down your spine.

THE DEVIL'S GRAVEYARD, By G. G. Pendarves

Giles the Thruster comes back from the Pit to fulfil an ancient curse, accompanied by the Four Ancients and Gaffarel the Mighty.

THE HORROR AT RED HOOK, By H. P. Lovecraft

Age-old horror is a hydra with a thousand heads, and the cults of darkness are rooted in blasphemies deeper than the well of Democritus.

A SUITOR FROM THE SHADES, By Greye La Spina

A complete novelette by the author of "The Gargoyle"—the story of a jealous lover who reached back from the grave to blight the happiness of his sweetheart, using the life forces of a frail girl to materialize himself.

THE DEVIL-RAY, By Joel Martin Nichols, Jr.

A purple beam of light shot from the clouds and devastated the countryside, bringing instant death to whatever it touched.
