Synopsis "An H.P. Lovecraft Collection: Hideous Tales of Horror and the Macabre -"

We collect here for your delectation the august works of HOWARD PHILIPS LOVECRAFT, the "Old Gentleman of Providence," and the finest master of the gothic and macabre to ever take up pen. A legend in his own time, HPL has become in the intervening decades since his tragic death, a titan in the horror and supernatural fiction genre, having created such deathless montrosities as Nyarlathotep, the hideous, many-tentacled Cthulhu (who lurks beneath the world in a watery grave), and the fabled "Necronomicon" of the "Mad" Abdul Alhazred, a book by which the mysterious, forbidden gates between this world and the next may be thrown open, "When the stars are in alignment." Come, explore with us the secrets and lore of the dark mind that inspired such modern horror maestros as Clive Barker and Stephen King! A dizzying, frightful collection unlike ANYTHING you've Ever read before!

Howard Phillips Lovecraft (Providence, 20 de agosto de 1890-Providence, 15 de marzo de 1937) más conocido como H. P. Lovecraft, fue un escritor estadounidense, autor de relatos y novelas de terror y ciencia ficción.

Se le considera un gran innovador del cuento de terror, al que aportó una mitología propia —los Mitos de Cthulhu—, desarrollada en colaboración con otros autores, actualmente en vigencia.

Su obra constituye un clásico del horror cósmico, una línea narrativa que se aparta de las tradicionales historias de terror sobrenatural —satanismo, fantasmas—, incluyendo elementos de ciencia ficción como, por ejemplo, razas alienígenas, viajes en el tiempo o existencia de otras dimensiones.
