Letter to the editor of Weird Tales, October 1923 – October 1923 Letter to the editor of Weird Tales, September 1923 – September 1923 Everyone who read it either started their own magazine or fanclub, or began writing their own “weird fiction”-Lovecraft’s term for the kind of supernatural horror he churned out for several decades.įans of Lovecraft can read and download scans of his stories and letters to the editor published in Weird Tales at the links below, brought to us by The Lovecraft eZine (via SFFaudio).
