Showing results for "Holy Terror" in Anthologies & Short Stories

Arthur Machen (1863-1947) was a Welsh author known for his works of horror and the fantastic. He is recognized as an influence on modern writers of supernatural fiction. Holy Terrors (published in 1946, a year before his death) is a collection of 14 short stories of which nine are very short and are included in this recording. They are: “The Rose Garden”, “Psychology”, “The Soldier's Rest”, “The Cosy Room”, “The Ceremony”, “Holy Things”, “The Turanians”, “The Happy Children”, and “Munitions of War”.

Another excellent short story from the mind and pen of Ambrose Bierce. This story will draw you in like a fish on the line, then play you out and back in again. Bierce is a master of surprise and suspense.

Bierce está a la altura de Poe, Lovecraft y Maupassant en el panteón de ilustres del género terrorífico. Fue un maestro en la recreación de tensas atmósferas desasosegantes en medio de las cuales detona repentinamente un horror "físico", absorbente y feroz.
