In 1934 a new type of magazine was born. Known by various names -- the shudder pulps, mystery-terror magazines, horror-terror magazines -- weird menace is the sub-genre term that has survived today. Terror Tales magazine was one of the most popular. It came from Popular Publications, whose publisher Harry Steeger was inspired by the Grand Guignol theater of Paris. This breed of pulp story survived less than ten years, but in that time, they became infamous, even to this day. This ebook contains a classic story from the pages of Terror Tales magazine, reissued for today's readers in electronic format.
