Lovecraft stimulierte seine Fantasie zu verstörenden Geschichten der alptraumhaftesten Sorte - der Großmeisters des Horrors.

Anthology of Cthulhu Mythos is a captivating collection that brings together the works of three legendary authors: H. P. Lovecraft, Robert E. Howard, and Henry Kuttner. This anthology showcases over thirty stories that delve into the dark and mysterious realms of the Cthulhu Mythos, a universe filled with cosmic horrors, ancient deities, and existential dread.

At the heart of these stories, as with all the best of Lovecraft’s work, is the belief that the Earth was once inhabited by powerful and evil gods, just waiting for the chance to recolonise their planet. Cthulhu is one such god, lurking deep beneath the sea until called into being by cult followers who – like all humans – know not what they do.

Revenge, death, and destruction abound in this early short story by H.P. Lovecraft. The story follows Antoine, a count who is last in line to die at the age of 32 due to a curse put on his family hundreds of years prior. His ancestor, being responsible for the death, brought about the curse, and Antoine was left to watch all his family, including his manservant, die an early death. But when his time comes and he is exploring the castle in wait, he manages to successfully end the curse by deflecting the fatal blow of Charles - the son of the man who was killed so many years ago.

This collection comprises H. P. Lovecraft’s definitive works, including the complete Cthulhu Mythos and Dream Cycle stories.

"Les chats d'Ulthar", extrait : "On raconte que dans Ulthar, de l'autre côté de la rivière Skaï, aucun homme n'a droit de tuer un chat. J'en suis d'autant plus convaincu que mes yeux se posent sur celui qui est assis là, ronronnant près du feu. Le chat est un animal mystérieux. Il devine et voit des choses que les humains ne perçoivent pas. N'est-il pas l'âme de l'antique Égypte et le sujet des contes oubliés de Meroe et Ophir ? De plus, il est apparenté au Seigneur de la Jungle, et comme tel, il est l'héritier des secrets de la sombre et inquiétante Afrique.
