description: Algernon Blackwood (1869-1951) was an English short story writer and novelist one of the most prolific writers of ghost stories in the history of the genre. He was also a journalist and a broadcasting narrator. S. T. Joshi has stated that his work is more consistently meritorious than any weird writers except Dunsanys. Though Blackwood wrote a number of horror stories his most typical work seeks less to frighten than to induce a sense of awe.
