Originally founded in the 1920s with the mission of finding and publishing "the next Edgar Allan Poe," Weird Tales has featured such authors of unearthly fiction as H. P. Lovecraft, Ray Bradbury, Robert E. Howard, and Stephen King. Today, Weird Tales'
gothic eeriness continues to evolve with a regular mix of young,
up-and-coming talent (Caitlin R. Kiernan, Barth Anderson, Carrie
Vaughn) as well as fan-favorite authors (such as Tanith Lee, Joe R.
Lansdale, and John Shirley).
As Weird Tales
heads toward its 85th anniversary in 2008, the magazine has debuted an

perfect time to subscribe! (And keep up with the latest updates at WeirdTalesMagazine.com.)
"Weird Tales
is a diverse collection of fiction, commentary, artwork, reviews,
letters, and an interview . . . There’s a little horror, a little
comedy, some romance, a dash of drama, and a smidge of science fiction.
. . . It presents widely varied stories and will appeal most to someone
who flops into a recliner, opens the magazine at random, and expects
simply that it provide entertainment without preconditions.” —Tangent Online, 2007
