Not too serious 32

It is time for the last installment of this project. Our alphabet is complete (OK, there are a few more letters, but they cannot be used for the present purpose) and the most macabre creations have been reserved for this occasion with the letter Q. So meet the sole Norwegian of the series:

In his prison Mr. Quisling
did not enjoy his last bottle of Riesling.
It spun dreams of the late Mr. Terboven
planning a friendly occupation of his coffin.

And to celebrate the event and strengthen the theme: a bonus this time, about one of the obscure authors of the previous century:

In the archive of Seabury Quinn
rests a story of a murderous djinn
that stuffed corpses into a bottle.
— If that won't attract readers, what'll?

That's it folks. Have a good time and write your own verses.
