Daily Mail - The VERY eccentric life of the Queen Mum's favourite author E. F. Benson

Dass ich etwas mit der verstorbenen Queen Mum👑 gemeinsam habe, wusste ich ja. Aber dass auch Paul McCartney ein Fan von Mapp & Lucia ist, erfuhr ich erst heute. :mastodance: dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/arti

So hashtag time! Here are a few of my favourite horror/dark fantasy/weird writers. Let's start with the old guard, i.e. pre-WW2. Most of these are dab hands at pagan or antiquarian horror, which are my favourite types usually:

@InterzoneMag Pleased to hear about the Friends of Arthur Machen, since I'm a fan of his work and I share their disappointment about the Hill of Dreams. I used to be a member of the Tilling Society. At least Rye had the decency to stay uncannily true to E.F. Benson's descriptions.

He tries to tell himself that it's only a shadow, but he is haunted by it.

And, that horrifying thing he saw on the croquet lawn, could that really have only been a shadow?

"325. English author E.F. Benson (1867-1940) had a 1927 biography titled Sir Francis Drake. It's about the English explorer and pirate who lived from circa 1540 to 1596. It was the first of 9 or 10 biographies Benson wrote". Book available at The Faded Page. NY Times had an article about the book in an April 1927 edition of New York Times Book Review.

Here's a lino print I made based on E. F. Benson’s 1922 short story Negotium Perambulans, a tale of a remote village on the Cornish coast plagued by an ancient blood-sucking giant slug! The story found a vocal fan in H. P. Lovecraft...
