Seaside Fun and Frolic

Hal K Wells, author of today's quotation, above, was always the most measured of writers. Black Pool For Hell Maidens—which includes chapters entitled “The Clawed Ghoul”, “House Of Grisly Fear”, and “Mad Pack Of the Maimed” — was the first in his series of guides to British seaside resorts, all of them featuring both “hell maidens” and the enigmatic Raoul. Later titles included Skeg Ness For Hell Maidens, Tot Nes For Hell Maidens, and Raoul And The Hell Maidens Go Wild In Great Yar Mouth.
