Pledged to the Dead
A classic pulp fiction novelette first published in the October 1937 issue of Weird Tales Magazine: A Jules de Grandin story
What started as a lighthearted flirtation with a beautiful, strangely dressed maiden under the New Orleans moonlight ended with young Ned Minton pledged to eternal love with a girl who had died a century before -- a promise enforced by the all-too-real fangs of the demon-serpent who guarded her. Ned's only hope is that French physician and occult investigator Jules de Grandin can get to the bottom of it and end the curse that keeps the lovely Julie d'Ayen shackled to the material world -- before the eldritch serpent's fangs end Ned.

Über den Autor
Seabury Grandin Quinn (also known as Jerome Burke; 1889 - 1969) was an American pulp magazine author, most famous for his stories of the occult detective Jules de Grandin, published in Weird Tales. His first published work was The Law of the Movies, in The Motion Picture Magazine, December 1917. (His story Painted Gold may have been written earlier.) Demons of the Night was published in Detective Story Magazine on March 19, 1918, followed by Was She Mad? on March 25, 1918. He published The Stone Image in 1919. He introduced Jules de Grandin as a character in 1925 (taking the character's surname from his own middle name) and continued writing stories about him until 1951. The longest of the de Grandin stories is the 1932 novel-length story The Devil's Bride, strongly influenced by Robert W. Chambers' 1920 novel The Slayer of Souls.
