| Publisher Description: In the Lovecraftian universe there exist many terrible and horrifying things from extraterrestrial gods and portentous nightmares, to zealous cults, supernatural curses, and beyond. Perhaps some of the most terrifying imagery, however, originates from Lovecraft's gruesome creatures. Part of our "Fantasy and Horror Classics" imprint, the chilling tales of this short story collection feature some of Lovecraft's most terrifying monsters and creatures. A fantastic collection of classic horror fiction not to be missed by lovers of the genre. Contents include: "The Transition Of Juan Romero", "The Doom That Came To Sarnath", "The Nameless City", "The Music Of Erich Zann", "The Lurking Fear", "The Shunned House", "The Unnameable", "The Outsider", "The Call Of Cthulhu", "The Dunwich Horror", "From Beyond", and more. Other notable works by this author include: "At the Mountains of Madness", "The Rats in the Walls", and "The Shadow Over Innsmouth". Howard Phillips Lovecraft (1890-1937) was an American writer of supernatural horror fiction. Though his works remained largely unknown and did not furnish him with a decent living, Lovecraft is today considered to be among the most significant writers of supernatural horror fiction of the twentieth century. Read & Co. is publishing this classic collection of short stories now in a new edition complete with a dedication by George Henry Weiss. |
