In yesterday's post I hinted that the 37th best classic horror short story for the half century in question was penned by Charles F. Hoffman (1806-1884). The horror tale of sensation is titled: Ben Blower's Story; or How to Relish a Julep. It was published on page 132 of Graham's Magazine in September of 1842, Vol. XXI, No. 3 for those keeping track at home. Have a go at it and I will give you my thoughts in the next post.
