Mrs. Lorriquer is a short story by Henry S. Whitehead, published in Weird Tales in April 1932.  The narrative centers on a kind, courteous woman named Mrs. Lorriquer who is possessed by the spirit of a vicious gambler. This possession makes her hostile and unpleasant, particularly when she plays cards, serving as a supernatural exploration of identity and moral corruption. Gerald Canevin is a fictional character created by Henry S. Whitehead for a series of supernatural stories. Most of the Canevin stories were published in fantasy-themed magazines such as Weird Tales and Strange Tales. In the series, Gerald Canevin is an American writer of supernatural fiction who spends most of his time in the US Virgin Islands, alternating between Santa Cruz (a.k.a. St. Croix) and St. Thomas. A recurring character in the Canevin series is Dr. Pelletier, a navy surgeon who provides scientific commentary on the fantastic events experienced while also showcasing a knowledgeable and open-minded attitude towards the supernatural.
