by Myron I. Scholnick
Myron I. Scholnick was an American short-story writer whose work appeared during the golden age of pulp science fiction and fantasy. His best-known story, To Sup With the Devil, was originally published in the January 1954 issue of Imagination Stories of Science and Fantasy and later preserved by Project Gutenberg.
The story centers on two friends whose casual evening over wine turns into a deadly confrontation involving murder, suspicion, and the Devil. Scholnick’s surviving work suggests an interest in psychological tension, moral consequences, and supernatural twists, but little additional biographical information has been reliably documented.
