One of the OG “weird fiction” writers. This is a compilation of the me-too type of Holmes stories but with a focus on the supernatural and occult. The stories that happened to be humans ended up being more engaging - and I appreciate Hodgson subverting his own trope by writing stories where the occult wasn’t behind anything.
