These stories are not meant to be scary, in the traditional sense, but rather disturbing and even thought provoking. Many of these are written by easily recognizable authors, such as Edgar Allan Poe, Henry James, and Rudyard Kipling, and others are by more obscure writers from the same era. Also included in this volume are ten original pictures from the Cemetery Photography gallery of Osie Turner. They all appear beautifully on both color and grayscale readers. Contents include: The Dead Valley by Ralph Adams Cram August Heat by William Fryer Harvey The Altar of the Dead by Henry James The Highwaymen by Lord Dunsany The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar by Edgar Allan Poe They by Rudyard Kipling From the Dead by Edith Nesbit The Satyr by Alma Newton The Wood of the Dead by Algernon Blackwood The Return by Walter de la Mare

Book Synopsis The Wellington Manuscript by : Osie Turner

Download or read book The Wellington Manuscript written by Osie Turner. This book was released on 2013-05-22. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The following document was found posthumously in the cell of Dr. George Wellington, Professor Emeritus of Philology, Kingsport University, executed May 5, 1953, at Louisiana State Penitentiary. The handwriting was surprisingly meticulous, apparently the product of a calm and composed mind, despite the clear break from reality Dr. Wellington suffered the final years of his life. ***** After Dr. Wellington’s release from the psychiatric hospital, he disappeared, only to resurface in New Orleans at the scene of a grizzly murder scene. Before his internment in the hospital, he had been obsessed with a 15th century alchemical text and lost his house and wife in an unexplained fire. In his own words, Dr. Wellington recounts the events leading up to his arrest.
