Grim Thirteen

Published in 1919, 'Grim Thirteen' is a collection of thirteen short stories by various American authors, each deemed too gruesome for publication in mainstream magazines. The anthology arose from the idea that every storyteller might possess a 'hoodooed' masterpiece that was overlooked due to its dark themes. This unique compilation invites readers to judge these stories, showcasing the darker side of American literature and the challenges faced by writers in the early 20th century.
