About this listen

Radio Archives Pulp Classics: total pulp experience. These exciting pulp adventures have been beautifully reformatted for easy listening and feature every story, every editorial, and every column of the original pulp magazine.

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. By 1937, Ace Magazines, the same low-rent publisher who presented fans with Captain Hazzard, Flying Aces, and Western Aces, tried to enter the field with Eerie Stories. Unfortunately, it didn't catch on, only lasting one issue before folding. This is that issue. Eerie Stories returns in these vintage pulp tales, reissued for today’s listeners in audiobook format.

By today's standards...

I wonder if anyone really thought these stories were all that eerie when they were originally published in the 30s. I only liked about three of them, with a couple maybes. The rest just seemed tepid...though they adhered to the standard of the pulp era featuring naked and/or scantily clad maidens, which would lend themselves well to the magazine covers to attract readers... The narration was good if not outstanding.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
