H.P. Lovecraft

An adaptation of one of Lovecraft's early tales. Lorraine Claude is fascinated with the morbid and weird. It is an interest she has turned into a profitable career as a publisher of lurid non- fiction. And the most recent novel from one of her most popular authors, Pytr Knoll, has her captivated. The book deals with ghastly events committed in secluded New England farm houses since the days of the Puritans. Claude cannot get Knoll's accounts out of her mind, and she decides to take a weekend drive into the New England countryside and explore one of these farmhouses for herself.

This Lovecraft tale is adapted by award winning comic writer Steven Philip Jones (CALIBER's Sherlock Holmes, Dracula). H.P. Lovecraft is considered one of America's most innovative and popular American horror writers. The master of the weird tale during the first decades of the 20th Century until his premature death in 1937, Lovecraft's distinctive style and canon of work has influenced many authors. Jones takes the classic tale and while remaining true to the source, brings them into the modern age which can sometimes make the horror even more terrifying. This tale is illustrated by Rob Davis who has worked for MARVEL and DC, and comic book series based on Star Trek and Quantum Leap.

In addition to the comic adaptation of the story, the original H.P. Lovecraft published work is also included in this volume.
