While most of the material in =WEIRD TALES= is, of course,
fiction, we are of the belief that there are innumerable
persons who have lived through experiences as weird, terrible
and horrifying as anything ever chronicled by a fictionist.
This belief, and the fact that =WEIRD TALES= deals exclusively
with the bizarre and unusual, has resulted in the establishment
of =THE CAULDRON=.
Readers who have had a hand in strange adventures, or who have
been victims of experiences of a startling and terrifying
nature, are cordially invited to send accounts of them to
=THE CAULDRON=. A concrete idea of what is desired may be
ascertained by reading this month’s contributions. Manuscripts
may be as horrible and hair-raising as it is in the power of
the author to make them, but they must be clean from a moral
standpoint. Those accepted will be paid for at our usual rate.
Tell your story clearly and briefly. Double-spaced, typewritten
manuscripts are preferred, but those in long hand will be
considered if legibly written. No manuscript will be returned
unless accompanied by a stamped and self addressed envelope.
