Книга «The Lurking Fear: Collected Short Stories. Volume 4». Автор - Говард Філіпс Лавкрафт

"The thing came abruptly and unannounced; a demon, rat-like, scurrying from pits remote and unimaginable, a hellish panting and stifled grunting, and then from that opening beneath the chimney a burst of multitudinous and leprous life a loathsome night-spawned flood of organic corruption more devastatingly hideous than the blackest conjurations of mortal madness and morbidity." Only the expansive imagination of H.P. Lovecraft could conceive the delicious and spine-tingling horrors you will find within the pages of this unique collection. In addition to such classics as The Picture in the House , The Music of Erich Zann and The Rats in the Walls , this volume contains some fascinating rarities: examples of Lovecraft s earliest weird fiction and material unpublished during his lifetime. H.P. Lovecraft s creation of the Cthulhu Mythos has influenced many modern authors, and still remains at the forefront of supernatural literature.
