Elder things. Ghasts. Night-gaunts.
Meet the creatures of the Cthulhu Mythos, denizens of the dark but
brilliant imagination of H. P. Lovecraft. The collection of horror and
fantasy he penned during his short lifetime is a legacy that has
terrified and inspired generations of fans. Lovecraft’s tales reveal
the horror of seeing what has been hidden from humanity for good
reason.
Written for those curious about Lovecraft and his work, this
illustrated guide presents detailed descriptions of twenty-nine of the
monsters, creatures, and gods that inhabit Lovecraft’s macabre
fictional universe, without any spoilers that could ruin a future read
of his stories. It also includes an introduction to the man regarded as
the father of American horror.
