So i was wondering, what are some other classic short stories that could be tagged as "horror", that were written by otherwise pretty unknown writers?

Because let's be honest, i doubt there's anyone in this board who has read other story by W.W. Jacobs that isn't "The Monkey's Paw".

So i'm looking for cases like that, so no Poe's and no Lovecraft's this time please.

I'm actually impressed that the author managed to monkey paw this one so hard. Simps find a way.

Also you lied /lit/, you said Zac's only love is axe.

Why has this become a trope? Are people just mimicking what they heard Bloom say, or is the "outrage" purely performative virtue signaling for the other dimwits on Plebbit and Goodreads?

>new left anti-Soviet fags supported by the CIA

the modern left are stooges of the neoliberal elite

They are bootlickers to the DNC at the end of the day. Soviet subversion only succeeded in creating a golem that would ensure that:

a) neoliberals would have a tidy, impotent, little opposition party
b) authoritarian, socially conservative socialism would never again be a dominant force in politics
