H.P. Lovecraft
“The Old Ones were, the Old Ones are, and the Old Ones shall be.”
In the isolated, decaying town of Dunwich, Massachusetts, an inbred, reclusive family harbours dark secrets tied to ancient, otherworldly forces.
When the grotesque Wilbur Whateley grows at an unnatural pace and seeks forbidden knowledge, the boundaries between our world and the cosmic unknown begin to crumble. As invisible forces wreak havoc across the countryside, scholars race to confront a horror that defies all reason—and discover an evil that threatens not just Dunwich, but the very fabric of reality.
The Dunwich Horror is a prime example of Lovecraft's cosmic horror genre, a chilling tale that embodies the essence of cosmic dread—and suggests that some things are beyond human comprehension and should not be tampered with.
Though virtually unknown and financially unsuccessful during his lifetime, H.P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) is now regarded as one of the most influential 20th-century writers of supernatural horror fiction. Widely credited with inventing the “cosmic horror” genre—fiction that explores humanity’s insignificance in the face of vast, unknowable cosmic forces—he also created the “Cthulhu Mythos”, a shared universe of ancient alien beings and forbidden knowledge that has influenced generations of horror and science fiction writers.
