By H. P. Lovecraft
With an Introduction by Jeffrey Andrew Weinstock
Back Cover Text
Collected in this volume are spine-tingling tales showing us that below the ground and at the
top of mountains peaks lurk nameless gods and ghouls, both powerful and horrific. In cemeteries
and desert wastes and swampy bogs, the evidence of past civilizations remains waiting to be
uncovered, ominously portending mankind’s own inglorious future conclusion. Even more
disconcerting in H. P. Lovecraft’s fictional world is that one need not even leave home to
come face-to-face with the cataclysmic revelation of man’s insignificance. Monsters not
only skulk in underground crypts and exotic foreign lands, but swarm all around us, just out of
sight.
Among the creepy tales included in this valume are “He,” “The Moon-Bog,”
“The Other Gods,” and “Polaris.”
H. P. LOVECRAFT
Howard Phillips Lovecraft was born in Rhode Island in 1890. When he was three, his father was
admitted to an insane asylum, and by the time Lovecraft was eight he suffered his own
“near-breakdown.” At the age of seven, he had begun writing short horror tales.
