    "The Derelict" is a short story by British writer, William Hope Hodgson, first published in THE RED MAGAZINE in its December 1st edition, 1912. The classic tale tells of the discovery and subsequent investigation of a mysterious, derelict vessel...
    "Ghouls of the Sea" is a rare weird tale by the American author, J. B. S. Fullilove. Appearing in the March 1934 edition of Weird Tales, the story asks what it was that came up out of the sea, spreading death aboard the freighter "Kay Marie"...
    "The Black, Dead Thing" by Frank Belknap Long first appeared in Weird Tales in October 1933. The story was described by the magazine as: "A weird sea-tale, about the utterly horrible thing that came aboard a ship on the second night out."
    "The Lure of Atlantis" by the five-time Weird Tales contributor, Joel Martin Nichols, Jr., debuted in WT in its April 1925 edition. The story tells of an expedition into the heart of the lost city of Atlantis...
    "The Night Ocean" is a short story by H. P. Lovecraft and R. H. Barlow. Barlow drafted the tale, and handed it to Lovecraft to edit in the summer of 1936. It first appeared in the magazine The Californian, in its Winter 1936 edition. It tells of an unnamed artist, who, whilst vacationing by the beach, becomes increasingly unsettled by the presence of the ocean...

      The mold is a constant battle in Haiku. As the wet season thrives, so too the living nuisance creeps to an overwhelming reminder. That we are not alone and one's house welcomes all that dwells in a lurking battle of constant diligence to wipe and deter all that feeds on the comfort of one's own

    Being in the middle of the ocean, on a haunted ship, in dirty weather, is there a more helpless and terrified feeling.Thats why almost every old sea horror tale is tops in my opinion

    I remember reading "The Derelict" many years ago and thought it was very suspenseful with a surprisingly good ending. The captain was a proper hero. His words "Be smart lads" stuck in my mind ever since.

    She was fortunate to have friends and family who cared for and loved her enough to forego the folly and nonsense she cultivated, and were able to keep her safe, buffered for the most part, from rhe harsh reality of life. She lived in a fantasy, in which she was a juggernaut, a dynamo who masterfully dealt with any challenges expertly and who always triumphed. She died, presumably believing she was on top of the world, and in that sense, she was. We should all be so lucky.

    Makes me glad I didn’t end up joining the royal navy as I’d planned. I love the sea, but by Christ it’s unnerving out there.
    This quintet, or I suppose shoal might be a better noun, of tales taps into that feeling. Nothing more intimidating than the sea when you’re alone with your own mind, I think.
    There’s nobody else about, other than your crew, who are quite literally in the same boat as you. And then there’s only rather tenuous and knife-edge physics, a distressingly few thin sheets of metal and your own lung capacity between you and a crushing, choking doom that nobody really knows anything about, because at depth, there are no bodies to be found…
    Heh. Anyway: Brava! A nautical marathon of perturbation! Grand stuff!

    “ It was fully a week before the villagers noticed that no lights were appearing at dusk in the windows of the cottage under the trees. Then the lean Nith remarked that no one had seen the old man or his wife since the night the cats were away. In another week the burgomaster decided to overcome his fears and call at the strangely silent dwelling as a matter of duty, though in so doing he was careful to take with him Shang the blacksmith and Thul the cutter of stone as witnesses. ”
    So as the late summer gloaming is disturbed; first by the faint plop and hiss of someone dropping their Peterson Pipe into their pint of Old Shoggoth, to be followed immediately by several minutes of loud, aggressive and perfectly astonishing invective, I’ll just take this opportunity bid everyone here a safe and warm goodnight.

    The professor flipped the slide and droned, _”And here we have the colors of the notorious pirate captain Mad Wullie McDongle, whose ship_ The Flying Vomit _terrorized the Spanish silver fleets of the Peruvian coast. Legend has it the skeleton riding a cannon on bifurcated black field with cutlass, rum bottle, copulating pigs with inscription design was made after capturing the Spanish galleon_ St. Marie Louisa Hildago Guadalupe del Cajones. _Apparently Captain Wullie was unhappy that the Spanish weren’t impressed with his flag and sought to design one more terrifying. Foolishly, he ordered this during the bout of celebratory drinking. The crew put together these colors using the Spanish captain’s trousers. The enraged and hungover Captain Wullie had the design committee flogged. But as it was the only black fabric aboard, the colors couldn’t be changed. Despite Captain Wullie’s dissatisfaction, they worked well. The flag’s nonsensical motto, taken from the ravings of a heat stroked Spanish sailor,_ *“¡TONTO! ¡Conejera ha MUERTO!”* _proved the final push to panic future Spanish crews. Captain Wullie and crew prospered all the way up to the regrettable penguin incident of 1763._

    A short story (that can be found online in audiobook form) is "The Things" by Peter Watts, and it tells the story of the 80's John Carpenter film, but from the perspective of the alien creature...who at first is confused and disgusted and horrified by *is*, because it doesn't comprehend the idea of an individual...who is *trapped* in one mind and one body and one form, one shape...unable to "share" and experience "communion" with other life...because that it HOW is communicates.
    It can't even comprehend our bizarre kind of like, because IT'S KIND of life if the most common in the universe. We are a kind of abomination to it. It doesn't understand that being a single isolated - limited - thing is possible.
    (Also, during the original crash, over 80% of it's original biomass - it's self, memories, facilities, abilities...so it is a weakened, broken, disabled, dumbed-down version of itself, so it's attempts at communication, at "communion", are disastrous.
    I mean this is a being that in its full capacity could travel the stars...now it can barely survive.
    Of course, once realizes that it is weak and that we are scared of it and are trying to kill it, it becomes panicky...figures its only hope is to acquire as much biomass as quick as possible...and to get as much if *us* under control as soon as possible.
    And if it can just get off of Antarctica, it can "fix" Earth and make its biosphere self-aware.

    Thanks for this over-all enjoyable post; these tales would have made for good TV in the old "Night Gallery'' series. The tale of ''Lure of Atlantis'' was for myself---in the armchair of the 21st Century, rather just 'amusing' rather than a good 'tale of Horror from the Sea'. Too much a reminder of Haggard's ''SHE', with a man besotted under the psycho-sexual 'spell' of some ancient, exotic beauty...lying in a 'Lucite' entombment. So a testament to the Freudian influence in popular Pulp Fiction. "The Night Ocean", far too verbose. A reaching for poetic art, that in the end is basically just a monologue about one man's temporary bout with Depression. lol...

    Thank you for contributing to me not killing myself, I tried 2x since end of July and almost did it with a glock 40 a cpl nights ago. Its a long story but first attempt I taped a hose to the exhaust pipe of my car. Wasn't strong enough woke up with a horrible migraine. Don't remember the second one mixed antidepressants and alc, stabbed myself 2x chest and arm aimed for my lung I guess and the artery between bicep and tricep but only Nicked it enough to squirt some. The glock would have worked 40 cal to the temple is not something you can mess up, that's where you come in. I decided to listen to some of your videos first and to get lovecraft on the brain hoping I'd end up in a dream state made of those elements. I ended up changing my mind and becoming semi rational. It motivated me to write and record music instead. I won't get into why bug a long time wife is involved. Turns out reconciliation is possible as well so extra bonus reason I'm glad I held off. Thank you so much for everything!

      I love this channel.. especially Algernon Blackwood. Check out HB's playlist of him, it really calms my mind to drift into those ones. All the Frank Belknap Long and Henry Kuttner ones are great too. So many good people are going through exactly what you are so don't feel alone or weird because you aren't at all.
