Curtis Evans: on Fredric Brown (sadly typically of CrimeReads, they typo'd Brown's name in the headline--now fixed)
Jerry House: "The Story of the Other Wise Man" by Henry van Dyke (Harper’s New Monthly Magazine January 1893); "Casting the Runes" by M. R. James (and the 1957 film adaptation), (More Ghost Stories of an Antiquary, Arnold, 1911)

I highly recommend the Evans article on Fred Brown. It's a fascinating read!
I agree. I was called away by other business before I finished it, but I will. Does anything strike you as lacking (versus simply a different take on Brown and his work)?
The only thing lacking was a bibliography. I would have liked to see the sources. Perhaps Crime Reads doesn't run those. I thought the long discussion of Brown's parents and extended family was fascinating.
