H. P. Lovecraft marries creeping horror and colossal fantasy in his gothic tales. These brilliant narratives show humanity confronted with ineffable creatures and grim geographies, as individuals lift the veil to discover hidden realities.

This collection brings together 7 of Lovecraft's short stories, including 'Call of the Cthulhu', 'The Shadow Over Innsmouth' and The Color Out of Space', where we encounter ancient and cosmic terrors. The mythologies and landscapes in these tales have inspired countless tales and remain true classics of American literature.

These stories are magnificently illustrated with specially-commissioned, full-colour illustrations by Martin Bustamante.

ABOUT THE SERIES: The Arcturus Illustrated Classics series brings together handsome hardcover editions of classic works, beautifully presented with full-colour, specially-commissioned illustrations, patterned endpapers and dust jackets.
