Black Vulmea’s Vengeance is one of Howard’s two stories about the Irish pirate Terence “Black” Vulmea. It first appeared in Golden Fleece in 1938.

Terence Vulmea, aka Black Vulmea, was born a 17th-century Irish peasant and carried his vendetta against the English oppressors of his country to the waters of the Caribbean. He is one of Robert E. Howard’s lesser-known characters; more of his exploits were later added by David C. Smith.  Robert E. Howard only wrote two tales about Vulmea.
