 This incident is dramatized in the film "Howl" (2010), in which Schorer is portrayed by Treat Williams.In addition to his scholarly works, he also co-authored a series of science-fiction and horror stories with writer, publisher and childhood friend (both being natives of Sauk City, Wisconsin) August Derleth.These stories, originally published mainly in "Weird Tales" magazine during the 1920s and 1930s, were eventually anthologized in "Colonel Markesan and Less Pleasant People" (1966).
