Status Updates From The Weird: A Compendium of ...

"The Book" - Liked it. A classic tale of a man corrupted by evil.

"The Mainz Psalter" - Love it. Jean Ray has become one of my favorite Weird writers, partially due to this story and--

"The Shadowy Street" - Another incredible story from Jean Ray. Love it.

"The Dunwich Horror" - Not my favorite Lovecraft story, but I still like it. The introduction to Dunwich sets the mood well, and the final sentence is chilling.

"The White Wyrak" - Liked it. Always enjoy a good creature feature.

"The Night Wire" - Liked it. Pretty simple premise but still very creepy.

"In the Penal Colony" - Wow. Unmistakably Kafka. Such an extraordinary artist.

"Unseen - Unfeared" - Didn't like it much, although the idea of suddenly becoming aware of previously invisible and intangible creatures is pretty terrifying and would surely traumatize.

"The Hell Screen" - Liked it. Not as Weird as I had hoped, though. I assumed the horror would come from the painting itself and not events that led to its creation, but that's not to say I'm disappointed. A tragic story with one particularly unnerving scene.
