Title: The Black Cat of the Witch-Dance-Place Title Record # 1377656
Author: Frances Jenkins Olcott
Date: 1930-00-00
Type: SHORTFICTION
Language: English
Note:
  • Published in Olcott, Wonder Tales from Goblin Hills: From the German and English (Longmans, 1930) --expanded from The Supernatural Index (snippets viewed at google), which covers both the 1936 and 1958 anthologies
  • One WorldCat library record of that 1930 collection Wonder Tales from Goblin Hills, OCLC 1652194 provides a list of Contents that does not include this title. If that report is reliable, this story is probably published there under the title   "Walpurgis Witch-Night (Hexantanzplatz)" or the same with correct spelling Hexentanzplatz (German, literally Witches-Dance-Place).
  • "The Black Cat of the Witch-Dance-People" may be a genuine variant title. That is reported by one WorldCat record of the 1936 anthology in its 1st ed., OCLC 1445403, where it is probably a mistake.
  • One WorldCat record of the 1936 anthology in a 1942 reprint, OCLC 704434597 (known to report the wrong illustrator) shows "Witch-Dance-Place".
