    • "The Terrible Old Man" by H. P. Lovecraft (1920)
      Nov 24 2021

      "The Terrible Old Man" is the first short story by H. P. Lovecraft to introduce readers to his imaginary New England setting of Kingsport. It is a very short story filled with a great deal of mystery. Who is the "Terrible Old Man"? Where did he come from? How old is he? What is his name? We may never know, but this much we know...his eyes were yellow.

    • "Jessie Cameron" by Christina Rossetti (1864)
      Nov 8 2021

      Unrequited love ending in the death of two young people on a beach. But who is to blame? The ocean or the boy? We may never know. But we can at least enjoy this short poem from Christina Rossetti and ponder what could've been the cause of the tragic ending.

    • "The Haunted Oak" by Paul Laurence Dunbar (1900)
      Oct 31 2021

      According to the University of Dayton Paul Laurence Dunbar, the son of two freed slaves from Kentucky, “was the first African American to gain national eminence as a poet."

      "The Haunted Oak" was written just 6 years before passing away at the age of 33 from health complications. The poem is written from the perspective of an oak tree where a black man was unjustly lynched, and the tree finds itself haunted by the pain of the man.

      Sadly, this poem reflects one of the darker periods of American History where this type of thing was common place. On this Halloween night, may we find a brighter light that can often be found as we peer in to the darkest reaches of our own history to confront and learn from it.
