The Dunwich Horror

By: Lovecraft, H. P.

In the degenerate, unpopular backwater of Dunwich, Wilbur Whately, a most unusual child, is born. Of unnatural parentage, he grows at an uncanny pace to an unsettling height, but the boy's arrival simply precedes that of a true horror - One of the Old Ones, that forces the people of the town to hole up by night, fearing for their lives, only able to trace the wreckage wrought by the gigantic, unseen monster by the bright light of day. In his classic style, H. P. Lovecraft weaves unearthly fantasies of creatures beyond conception - existing between the dimensions that we know.

Customer Reviews

What you cannot see can hurt you.

We are introduced to a Massachusetts backwater community where families are inbred and may have produced wizards. A strange, very ugly young man is trying to obtain a rare unabridged Latin version of the Necronomicon for what appears to be a nefarious project. Something smells off about his place. I never saw the movie. However, I was surprised by how well this book, by the inventor of modern horror, is written. Originally published in the summer of 1926, it is a timeless tale about being your brother's keeper.
