Writer Murdered in His Home Harold Langley, a local occult writer, was killed in a bizarre murder last night in his home. Langley was 42. Police state that the investigation is proceeding "smoothly," but they have no leads at this point. Two Miskatonic University professors are reported to have found the body when keeping an appointment with Langley. Langley wrote occult fiction for popular magazines and local newspapers. Some of his more famous stories are "The House of the Worm," "Shadows of Yog-Sothoth," and the infamous "The Defilers," which set a record last year when it was published by this periodical and caused 110 letters of indignation to be written by local readers. --The Arkham Advertiser, September 23, 1920
