Robert E. Howard’s "Pigeons from Hell" is a chilling Southern Gothic horror tale blending supernatural terror with a grim, oppressive atmosphere. It follows two travellers, John Branner and Griswell, who become stranded in the deep South and take refuge in an abandoned plantation house, the decaying remnants of the Blassenville family estate. The house is eerily silent, save for the presence of strange pigeons roosting in the rafters.

One of Howard’s most famous horror stories, Pigeons from Hell is a masterful blend of ghostly dread, gruesome violence, and atmospheric storytelling, showcasing his talent beyond sword-and-sorcery fiction. It remains one of the finest examples of Southern Gothic horror in pulp literature.
