Poe's Descent Into the Maelstrom
Imagine you are the highest cliff on Mt. Helseggen the Cloudy above a raging sea on the Norwegian coastline ...
This is the opening scene of a story within a story, classic 19th century form. Edgar Allan Poe takes us into the wild beauty of nature and balances it with the wild fear of death.
"Descent Into the Maelstrom." Read it at my Tales of Terror blog this week. Also there is a 30-minute narration if you prefer to sit back and listen to this classic sea adventure.

Who is Vincent O'Sullivan???
There is a classic horror author out there, Vincent O'Sullivan. I doubt many have read him or even heard of him these days. But I stumbled across two of his short stories and he writes vivid and macabre stories that really throb on the page.
Two of them are on my blog: "When I was Dead" and "The Business of Madame Jahn."
