Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Until his death in 1918, Bernard Capes was a prolific and highly-regarded author known for his imaginative tales of terror, including stories of werewolves, lost souls, and vengeful suicides. However, after his untimely passing, his works fell into obscurity for sixty years. In 1978, Hugh Lamb began to revive Capes's reputation by including 'The Moon Stricken' in his anthology, Forgotten Tales of Terror. The following year, Lamb featured two of Capes's finest stories, 'The Green Bottle' and 'An Eddy on the Floor,' in Tales from a Gas-Lit Graveyard, sparking renewed interest among fans of classic supernatural tales. By 1989, Lamb edited The Black Reaper for the Equation Chillers series, solidifying Capes's status as a master of weird fiction. This new edition includes eleven additional stories, many of which have not been published in over eighty years. Lamb's revised introduction incorporates new biographical insights, offering a comprehensive view of this once-forgotten master of terror. The collection features a variety of tales that explore the macabre and the mysterious, showcasing Capes's unique storytelling prowess.
