Back Cover Text

“THE OLDEST AND STRONGEST EMOTION OF MANKIND IS FEAR. AND THE OLDEST AND STRONGEST KIND OF FEAR IS FEAR OF THE UNKNOWN.”—H.P. LOVECRAFT
This is the collection that true fans of horror fiction have been waiting for: sixteen of H.P. Lovecraft’s most horrifying visions:
THE CALL OF CTHULHU—The first story in the infamous Cthulhu mythos—a creature spawned in the stars brings a menace of unimaginable evil to threaten all Mankind.
THE DUNWICH HORROR—An evil Man’s desire to perform an unspeakable ritual leads him in search of the fabled text of The Necronomicon
THE COLOUR OUT OF SPACE—A horror from the skies—far worse than any nuclear fallout—transforms a man into a monster.
THE SHADOW OVER INNSMOUTH—Rising from the depths of the sea, an unspeakable horror engulfs a quiet New England town.
THE SHADOW OUT OF TIME—Lovecraft’s masterpiece—the shocking revelation of the mysterious forces that hold all mankind in their fearsome grip.
