Paula Cappa's Blog - Posts Tagged "witches"

I have a new post on my WordPress blog. As I've been developing this blog, it seems that it's going to be little teasers on horror and mystery short stories. I love reading short stories, especially the classics. This week I'm featuring Lovecraft, "The Dreams in the Witch House." Wow, I forgot how much I liked Lovecraft and I'm rediscovering him.

Stop by and take a read. My posts are short, usually 500 words. You can read them while sipping a cup of coffee or tea and discover, or rediscover, some of the most talented authors of the past.

Dreams in the Witch House ... Lovecraft

Do you like M.R. James' stories? Have you read The Ash Tree? This is really high quality fiction that has the ability to withstand the decades of time. Visit my blog, Tuesday's Tale of Terror where you can find not only a free read by link to the short story, but also a link to a superb read aloud version (15 minutes) by actor Robert Powell. And a short film, which I found quite fun to watch (30 minutes).

Curl up this New Year's with this read aloud of The Ash Tree ... hollow, haunted, and deadly. And, please feel free to leave a blog comment.

Ever read the fiction of Mary Wilkins Freeman? "The Little Maid at the Door" is a suspenseful story of witches at Tales of Terror this week. You might also enjoy her play, "Giles Cory, Yeoman" which is also about the Salem witch trials and what a read it is. And if that isn't enough for you, you will find Freeman's spooky tale "The Shadows on the Wall."

Enough? I don't think so. Are you into listening to radio plays? I've got several for you.

Stop by Tales of Terror Women in Horror month for October. And next week, I've got something really special planned!

Poe said "I wish I could write as mysterious as a cat." Famous author Kelly Link has written a short story about witches and cats and I think Poe would give her a rave review.
