Learn moreFear is everywhere. It's in the furthest reaches of the most desolate places in the world, it creeps up on you in both the night and in broad daylight, and it's even hiding out in your backyard—waiting for the perfect moment to pounce. This collection of short stories by Achmed Abdullah perfectly captures the feeling of fear and the mistakes of men who are caught up in the search for the things that appear in their wildest dreams. Experience the following short stories in this eerie collection: Fear, The Incubus, Pro Patria, Pell Street Blues, Mystery of the Talking Idols, The Charmed Life, and A Simple Act of Piety.
Achmed Abdullah (1881-1945) was the pseudonym of an American writer who specialized in pulp stories and screenplays. His Siamese drama Chang: A Drama of the Wilderness was nominated for an Academy Award in 1927.
