Weird News: Large Ice Balls Come Ashore in Sweden

Tuesday, January 19, 2010


Ice, snow, and wind are common winter phenomena with an uncanny ability to transform into eerie mysteries. Today, collisions between the frigid and the supernatural play a great role in weird fiction. Writers like Algernon Blackwood, H.P. Lovecraft, Dan Simmons, and Simon Strantzas utilize numbing oddities to great effect in their work. And, as the story below proves, there is still plenty to tweak for incorporation into weird literature. The unintelligible weather cycles of this planet constantly heave up strangeness. That much is given, but little else is about these immense ice balls.

Thank you for the illustrious company, sir. I agree: this sounds like just the sort of thing I'd write a story around.
