Features: Compared to the previous issue, this one shows a significant change in style and theme. In terms of format, in addition to short and medium-length works, several long-length works have been appropriately included, making it more readable. The works in this issue range from sea adventures to terrifying human scenarios; they contain both sorrowful lament and satirical humor; they feature ghosts, werewolves, and supernatural beings. Most of the plots are mysterious and terrifying, with each work often featuring a supernatural entity that exists in comparison to mythology or folklore. These entities are filled with evil, commit crimes and misfortunes in the world, bringing death and disaster to humanity. Without a doubt, these and readable works, written by classic supernatural fiction authors mostly from the early 20th century, have laid the foundation for modern Western horror fiction. They are worth the careful appreciation of readers who love horror novels.
