Doorway to Dilemma: Bewildering Tales of Dark Fantasy

Tales from H. G. Wells, Frank R. Stockton, Lord Dunsany and more

"The events which I purpose detailing are of so extraordinary a character that I am quite prepared to meet with an unusual amount of incredulity and scorn..." '

Between horror and fantasy lies a world in which the inexplicable remains unsolved and the rational mind is assailed by impossible questions.

Welcome to the realm of Dark Fantasy, where the weird prevails and accounts of unanswerable dilemma find their home.

Gathered within these pages are twisted yarns, encounters with logic-defying creatures and nightmarish fables certain to perplex and beguile.

So join us as we journey across the threshold, deep into the Library's vaults where nineteen deliciously dark and totally dumbfounding stories await. These tales, plucked from long-lost literary magazines and anthologies spring to life again to embody this most mesmerizing of genres.
