Summary: "The Fantasy Fan, Volume 2, Number 6, February 1935" by Various is a collection of fan magazine articles and stories focused on weird fiction, edited by Charles D. Hornig, and published in the early 20th century. This publication represents a fascinating glimpse into the interests of fantasy enthusiasts during that time, highlighting key figures in the genre and examining elements of supernatural horror and speculative fiction. The final issue of "The Fantasy Fan," unfortunately marking its end, features a range of content, including H.P. Lovecraft's treatise on supernatural horror in literature and several short stories such as "The Slanting Shadow" by August W. Derleth and "The Legacy" by Kenneth B. Pritchard. Each of these narratives delves into themes of the uncanny, exploring mysterious occurrences, eerie phenomena, and the supernatural. The closing letter reflects on the magazine’s struggle to survive in a niche market, making this volume not only a collection of fantastical tales but also a historical artifact that underscores the challenges faced by early fantasy publications.
