Algernon Blackwood

Algernon Henry Blackwood, CBE (14 Maret 1869 – 10 Desember 1951) adalah seorang narator penyiaran, jurnalis, novelis dan penulis cerita pendek berbahasa Inggris, dan salah satu dari antara penulis cerita hantu paling produktif dalam sejarah genre tersebut. Kritikus kesusastraan S. T. Joshi menyatakan, "Karyanya lebih konsisten daripada penulis aneh lainnya kecuali Dunsany."[1] dan bahwa kumpulan cerpennya Incredible Adventures (1914) "mungkin koleksi aneh utama abad ini atau lainnya".[2]
