Magazine of Horror #34
Contents: This issue of *Magazine of Horror* features multiple horror stories: "The Whistling Corpse" by G.G. Pendarves, "Feminine Magic" (a Cornish tale) by David H. Keller, M.D., "Bride of the Wind" (a "Shop" story) by Stephen Goldin, and "The Headless Miller of Kobold's Keep," a novelet by Irvin Ashkenazy. The issue also advertises astrology annuals and includes a substantial editorial retrospective on author Seabury Quinn, who died in January 1970 days before his 81st birthday. The piece chronicles Quinn's career, his introduction to horror through reading *Dracula*, his law practice and military service, and particularly his prolific contributions to *Weird Tales*—168 total items including 93 series stories featuring detective Jules de Grandin, the character created spontaneously in 1925 without advance plotting. Additional sections advertise *Startling Mystery Stories*, *Weird Terror Tales*, and *Thrilling Western Magazine*.
