Anthony M. Rud

Anthony Melville Rud (11 January 1893 - 30 November 1942) was an American author and editor, several of whose works appeared in long-running pulp magazine Weird Tales; his short story "Ooze" was published in the very first issue. This tale, of a creature secreted away in a house which it later emerges from and destroys, is considered a possible inspiration for H. P. Lovecraft's short story "The Dunwich Horror".
