The Call of Cthulhu and Other Weird Tales

Summary


An introduction to the weird and unsettling world of H.P. Lovecraft, master and pioneer of horror.

Between these pages you will find things that lurk, things that scurry in the walls, things that move unseen, things that have learnt to walk that ought to crawl, unfathomable blackness, unconquerable evil, inhuman impulses, abnormal bodies, ancient rites, nameless lands best left undiscovered, thoughts best left unspoken, doors best left closed, names best forgotten.

You have been warned.
