A few examples of the better horror fiction you can currently read online (no promises that any given item will still be posted tomorrow, but I'm avoiding the more obviously criminal sites on the web, or anything that demands that you download):
Fritz Leiber:
Conjure Wfie (original magazine publication)
"Smoke Ghost"
You're All Alone (original magazine edit)
Theodore Sturgeon:
"It"
"Shottle Bop"
"The Professor's Teddy Bear"
Damon Knight:
"Special Delivery"
Robert Bloch:
"The Weird Tailor"
"The Man Who Collected Poe"
"Enoch"
Ray Bradbury:
"The October Game"
H. Russell Wakefield:
"Ghost Hunt" (if you were wondering about ancestors of The Blair Witch Project)
Saki:
Beasts and Super-Beasts (for a sample, try "Laura," the second story)
Ambrose Bierce:
Can Such Things Be?
and, for some Real Life Horror (aside from that included among the above):
William Saroyan:
"Seventy Thousand Assyrians"
(a few suggestions for Prashant Trikannad and others...more to be added soon)
