The Tentaculum is a quarterly magazine of weird fiction serving as a print edition of the Drabblecast. If you imagine the Drabblecast as an auditory entity of unknowable origin broadcasting weirdness directly into the minds of its many ravenous followers, then think of The Tentaculum as the forbidden book barely containing its obscene, incomprehensible secrets. Each issue features fresh Drabblecast short fiction before it hits the podosphere, along with original illustrations, thought-provoking nonfiction articles, and a mail-in section featuring opinions and thoughts from strange readers such as yourself.
All issues of The Tentaculum have been digitally released under a creative commons license for all to enjoy.
