This luxurious hardback compendium showcases the very best of the cosmic horror genre through 10 classic tales, beautifully presented with gilded page edges, patterned endpapers and cover embossing.
The Necronomicon is a fictional book of dark magic that appears in several of H. P. Lovecraft’s stories. With its ancient evils and long-forgotten secrets, it symbolizes the essence of cosmic horror that is at the heart of Lovecraft’s fiction. His tales of tentacled Elder Gods, nightmarish visions, and creeping insanity helped create the horror genre as we know it.
This anthology brings together tales from H.P. Lovecraft and his fellow writers of the “weird”, including Arthur Machen, Robert W. Chambers, and Lafeadio Hearn. Whether telling of the emergence of a tentacled alien being in “The Call of Cthulhu” or the sinister discovery of secrets in “The Black Seal,” the stories found here are the stuff of nightmares.
Includes:
• The History of the Necronomicon by H. P. Lovecraft
• The Haunter of the Ring by Robert E. Howard
• Nightmare-Touch by Lafcadio Hearn
• The Mask by Robert W. Chambers
