The Great God Pan & Other Classic Horror Stories by Arthur Machen

These short works of decadent horror were written by a pioneer of supernatural fiction. The title story, a tale of mysterious suicides, scandalized Victorian London with its sexuality and paganism.
Welsh novelist and essayist Arthur Machen (1863-1947) ranks among the most important and influential writers of his era. Although preoccupied with pagan themes and occult practices, his writing transcends the genre of supernatural horror. Machen also played a key role in the development of the pulp magazine fiction that foreshadowed today's popular graphic novels.
