When Strange Tales first appeared in 1931 as a pulp magazine, it
was clearly something new. Edited by Harry Bates as a companion to
Astounding Stories, it combined the supernatural horror and fantasy
of Weird Tales with vigorous action plots. Strange Tales rapidly
attracted the most imaginative and capable writers of the day,
including such Weird Tales regulars as Robert E. Howard, Clark
Ashton Smith, Henry S. Whitehead, Hugh B. Cave, Ray Cummings, and
numerous others. Had the Great Depression not intervened and killed
it after seven issues, the whole history of fantastic fiction might
have been different. The January 1933 issue features Hugh B. Cave's
classic "Murgunstrumm," as well as stories by Robert E. Howard,
Henry S. Whitehead, and many more.
