The Man who found out by Algernon Blackwood.

Nice horror story. Hmmm Not real horror but fun to read. A man goes mad after deciphering the ancient tablets of God which answer the most important questions humanity had asked.

The Willows by Algernon Blackwood

A 40 page short story included in the Classic Tales of Horror, a Canterbury Classics anthology. 

Two men sail the Danube during a storm. They stop in a small island to rest and wait for the storm to go but then strange things happen. Loud noises and creepy willows. I'm pretty bad remembering short stories but I think this one will be stuck in my mind for a long while.
