Summary |
Venture at your own risk into a realm where the sun sinks into oblivion-and all that is unholy, unearthly, and unspeakable rises. These rare, hard-to-find collaborations of cosmic terror are back in print, including - Wentworth's Day A fellow figures his debt to a dead man is null and void, until he discovers just how terrifying interest rates can be. - The Shuttered Room A sophisticated gentleman must settle his grandfather's estate, only to find that the house shelters dark secrets. - The Dark Brotherhood A beautiful woman and her companion meet the likes of Edgar Allan Poe, in a tale as terrifying as anything Poe himself ever created. - Innsmouth Clay A sculptor returns from Paris to create a statue not entirely of this world-and not at all under his control. - Witches' Hollow A new schoolteacher puts his soul in peril while trying to save one of his students from a ravenous creature. |
