  1. The titular 'Tetherstones' in a story by Ethel M Dell, published in The Strand Magazine, June 1923. Needless to say, the Tetherstones are weird and creepy with an uncanny reputation. The name refers to the human sacrifices who were tethered to them (of course)! #StandingStoneSunday #BookChatWeekly

  3. Marc Alexander was one of the top collectors of #ghost accounts in the 1970s. These two beauties date from 1973 and 1975 respectively. I'm pretty sure the inn pictured is The Bird Cage in Thame, #Oxfordshire, which was supposedly haunted by a leper. #PhantomsFriday #haunting #BookChatWeekly #pubs

  7. Weird pictures of the day are a couple of vintage Spanish Edgar Rice Burroughs' paperbacks with cover illustrations by Prieto. (Not books I own, btw). #weird #weirdart #artsky #fantasyfiction #BookChatWeekly #booksky #VintagePaperbacks #EdgarRiceBurroughs

  8. Another sketch from the 15-year-old Richard Doyle's journal of 1841. This shows him as he imagined himself lying in a fever and being surprised by hallucinations of all manner of #fairies and otherworldly little creatures. #BookChatWeekly #booksky #Victorian #illustration #artsky

  9. "There is only one principle in Hell. Bring back food or be food yourself." - C S Lewis, 'The Screwtape Letters' #BookWormSat #CSLewis #demonology #BookChatWeekly (I had to repost this because a Renaissance painting of Hell was AdultContent-ed. *sigh* So here's 'Calvin In Hell' by Heemskerck)
