Everybody on the block knew the tall man in the black cloak who never spoke and shut his eyes whenever a woman passed him on the sidewalk, and nobody thought to wonder why until the morning the janitor came running out of the tenement shouting for help. Written in 1942, “Mimic” eventually inspired the 1997 horror film of the same name. The short story was written by Martin Pearson, though you may also know him as Donald A. Wollheim or Darrel G. Raynor, as he used many pseudonyms when writing. The story is a simple premise, talking of how some insects disguise themselves as other insects, or some animals disguise themselves as other animals, in order to not be eaten by the creatures above them in the food chain. At the top of the food chain is man – do we have mimics disguised as us – in plain sight?
