Book

The Call of the Cthulhu (1926)

"The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have...

La llamada de Cthulhu (1926)

Wow. So I knew Lovecraft was a racist, but... wow. He would not have liked me!I thought it was about time I read some H.P. Lovecraft, and I'm glad I did. I like his writing style. I'd describe it as somehow melodious. That description doesn't usually go well with horror stories but in my head, it...

The Complete Works of H.P. Lovecraft (2011)

Well, I'm as finished as I'm going to be with this 1,200-page monster. I read everything whose title I mostly recognized or was recommended. Overall, I enjoyed it. His later works - 1929 or so - are noticeably more readable than the earlier ones. Generally found it much more readable than I had a...

Book

Herbert West: Reanimator (1922)

"Herbert West Re-Animator" is a short-story/novel written by Lovecraft in his distinct style. Old-fashioned, slightly baroque language. Combine this with slightly hysteric characters. Add a touch of quaint black magic in a pseudoscientific guise. And voilà - a Lovecraftian story. Set in Lovecraft...

Book

La casa stregata (1924)

Davvero poco interessante. Giuro, ho dato del mio meglio per riuscire a farmi trasportare dalla narrazione di Lovecraft ma, purtroppo, non ce l'ho fatta. Per non parlare del secondo racconto, abbandonato quasi alla fine. La pecca, secondo il mio parere, sta nell'aver descritto per tipo 30 pagine ...

Book

La sombra sobre Innsmouth (1936)

The Shadow Over Innsmouth is one of Lovecraft's most popular works, and it's probably the story I would suggest as the ideal first read for some outsider who is not familiar with the great master and his style. It incorporates not just his usual favorite motives like a decaying New England town, ...

The complete fiction of H.P. Lovecraft is pretty much that;complete.Missing only one Story which was "In the walls of Eryx" co-written by Lovecraft and Kenneth J. Sterling. The complete works embodies Lovecraft's progression as a writer and fills his mythos well. The only complaint I could find i...

Book

En las montañas de la locura (2010)

At first glance I found the Hergé-like illustrations to be a very odd choice for illustrating Lovecraft, but since At The Mountains of Madness is part an Victorian exploration tale, the style sort of fits - it's like an extra tentacled version of a Boy's Own adventure.It's a very quick read, alth...

Great Tales of Horror (1991)

I have very little experience with Lovecraft, but I know what an influence his work has been on 20th Century Horror, and I have been more and more intrigued to explore his works. This volume has about 20 of his stories, and from the looks, they are the most famous ones. I am excited!5/13 I am ...

The Dunwich Horror (1928)

La historia me gustó y la forma en la que está escrito no es pesada como en otros cuentos que tuve el placer de leer. Pero las últimas 20 páginas me llevó varios días leerlas y esto alargó lo que llamo "la tortura de Lovecraft", yo quería terminar los cuentos de una vez pero solo se me hacían cad...

El horror de Dunwich (1928)

Well, this definitely makes me like the movie less. Also, myself as apparently I too need to be overcome with dread at what will happen to sweet Doris Day because when I read this, I was like, 'What? That's it? And he never even got the book? And he just KEPT GOING to more colleges?'The coole...

L'orrore di Dunwich (1928)

Thoroughly enjoyable book. H.P. Lovecraft's grabs you with some great opening lines and then you are left in a deeply unsettling atmosphere that lingers throughout each short story in this collection. The atmosphere builds up and builds up until it reaches a crescendo of terror. A lot of his phra...

The Watchers Out of Time (1992)

No cabe duda de que a August Derleth hay que achacarle muchas cosas, entre ellas la explotación de toda la obra de H.P. Lovecraft desde la muerte de éste. Derleth fue un adepto de Lovecraft, un miembro de su círculo más íntimo, lo que le permitió (junto a Donald Wandrei), hacerse con todos sus pa...

The Horror in the Museum & Other Revisions (1989)

I begin this review with a confession. I stole this book.At the age of 12, I found this in my school library. I borrowed it, devoured it and loved it so, so much that I couldn’t bear to part with it. So I lied to the library staff, telling them that I’d lost the book. They charged me a fee, but I...

At the Mountains of Madness (2005)

6.0 stars. As I was experiencing Lovecraft’s supremely awesome, nightmarish masterpiece, At the Mountains of Madness (ATMOM), it really struck me for the first time that he was a tremendously literate writer. I have been a fan of Lovecraft for a long time and have always been gaga for his bizarre...

“Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn”Try saying that backward (or forward, which is equally challenging).H.P. Lovecraft is definitely the granddaddy of “Cosmic Horror” and Weird Fiction. He is often mentioned in science fiction / fantasy / horror related websites and forums, not to...

The Transition of H. P. Lovecraft: The Road to Madness (1996)

The Case of Charles Dexter Ward (1982)

Though Lovecraft is a favorite writer of mine, until now this book (one of only two novel-length pieces he ever wrote) has been one I hadn't gotten around to reviewing. It was recently nominated as a common read in my Supernatural Fiction Readers group; and though it wasn't the one chosen, that ...

Mitos De Cthulhu Ii: El Caso De Charles Dexter Ward (2003)

Incantations of black magic unearthed unspeakable horrors in a quiet town near Providence, Rhode Island. Evil spirits are being resurrected from beyond the grave, a supernatural force so twisted that it kills without offering the mercy of death!

The Call of Cthulhu (2011)

This here, folks, is the most impressive image of Cthulhu that I’ve come across: He just looks so damn regal, this eldritch, malevolent entity that appears part octopus kraken, part dragon, part human caricature…the so called "mountain who walks." Yes, I admit that I’m a Lovecraft/Cthulhu mytho...

Tales of the Cthulhu Mythos (2011)

said Chalmers. He was sitting by the window and his face was very pale. Two tall candles guttered at his elbow and cast a sickly amber light over his long nose and slightly receding chin. Chalmers would have nothing modern about his apartment. He had the soul of a mediaeval ascetic, and he prefer...

The Doom That Came to Sarnath

Ten thousand years ago there stood by its shore the mighty city of Sarnath, but Sarnath stands there no more. It is told that in the immemorial years when the world was young, before ever the men of Sarnath came to the land of Mnar, another city stood beside the lake; the gray stone city of Ib, w...

It is an unfortunate fact that the bulk of humanity is too limited in its mental vision to weigh with patience and intelligence those isolated phenomena, seen and felt only by a psychologically sensitive few, which lie outside its common experience. Men of broader intellect know that there is no ...

The Other Gods and More Unearthly Tales

L.     “Hypnos” was written in March 1922, just prior to Lovecraft’s first visit to New York City in April. The story is dedicated to “S. L.”     (Samuel Loveman), whom Lovecraft had come to see in New York, and who is perhaps meant to be the strange indivi...

Dream Cycle of H. P. Lovecraft: Dreams of Terror and Death

I was traveling in a parched and terrible valley under the moon, and afar I saw it protruding uncannily above the sands as parts of a corpse may protrude from an ill-made grave. Fear spoke from the age-worn stones of this hoary survivor of the deluge, this great-grandmother of the eldest pyramid;...

The Road to Madness

The three old houses in Parker Place, doubtless long rotten with decay in its most insidious form, collapsed without visible cause while half the raiders and most of the prisoners were inside; and of both the greater number were instantly killed. Only in the basements and cellars was there much s...

Bloodcurdling Tales of Horror and the Macabre

To say that a mental shock was the cause of what I inferred—that last straw which sent me racing out of the lonely Akeley farmhouse and through the wild domed hills of Vermont in a commandeered motor at night—is to ignore the plainest facts of my final experience. Notwithstanding the deep things ...

The Horror in the Museum (1989)

The scenery is superb in places, yet somehow the route has been unpopular for years. There is something depressing about it, especially near Stillwater itself. Motorists feel subtly uncomfortable about the tightly shuttered farmhouse on the knoll just north of the village, and about the white-bea...
