Coven 13, November 1969

COVEN 13, Vol. 1, No. 2, November 1969 This supernatural horror and witchcraft pulp magazine contains entirely new fiction across multiple genres. The lead serial, "Let There Be Magick!" (Part Two) by James R. Keaveny presents ongoing occult narrative. The novelette "The Transmogrification of Ridgely P. Winters" by Joseph Harris offers speculative fantasy. Short fiction includes "Once Upon a Werewolf" by Robert L. Davis, a Hollywood-set werewolf story subverting conventional monster tropes; "A Message for Brother I" by John Lipford; "Double Hex" by Samuel M. Clawson; "The Shadow Trader" by Wylly Folk St. John; and "Rockgod" by Harlan Ellison. The magazine features regular departments including Editor's Cauldron, Bell, Book and Tarot, Poetry Corner, and Reader's Section. Editor Arthur H. Landis's editorial emphasizes presenting supernatural phenomena against realistic contemporary contexts rather than stereotyped horror conventions, connecting occult themes to 1960s countercultural activism.
