Helen Hoke was a prolific writer, editor, and publisher of children’s books, and had particular success publishing anthologies featuring ghastly, ghostly, and witchy supernatural tales. Mysterious, Menacing, & Macabre is an anthology of such stories, and includes Elizabeth Bowen’s incredible Demon Lover and Elizabeth Fancett’s Dark Dream, among many stories by equally talented, but far more famous men. This is the publisher’s file copy.
