Per the author's introduction: "These stories were written all in one month twenty years ago specifically to swell the log of Weird Tales," but because the magazine already had too many Derleth stories on file awaiting publication, it was decided to tag these with the "Stephen Grendon" pseudonym -- which fooled nobody, since it was the name of the narrator of Derleth's 1941 novel "Evening in Spring."
