Horror in the Museum
 |
H.P. Lovecraft's major source of income lay in revising manuscripts submitted by hopeful authors. Some of these were in Lovecraft's own favorite field¸ that of the macabre. With these he went to especial pains to produce salable work -- sometimes completely rewriting and subsuming some of them into the Cthulhu Mythos.
This omnibus collection brings together these revisions and belongs solidly in the Lovecraft canon: 'The Green Meadow' and 'The Crawling Chaos' by Elizabeth Berkeley and Lewis Theobald; 'The Last Test' and 'The Electric Executioner' by Adolphe de Castro; 'The Curse of Yig'¸ 'The Mound'¸ and 'Medusa s Coil' by Zealia Bishop; 'The Man of Stone'¸ 'The Horror in the Museum'¸ 'Winged Death'¸ 'Out of the Aeons'¸ and 'The Horror in the Burying-Ground' by Hazel Heald; 'The Diary of Alonzo Typer' by William Lumley; 'The Horror at Martin s Beach' by Sonia H. Greene; 'Ashes'¸ 'The Ghost-Eater'¸ 'The Loved Dead'¸ and 'Deaf¸ Dumb¸ and Blind' by C.M. Eddy Jr.; 'Two Black Bottles' by Wilfred Blanch Talman; 'The Trap' by Henry S. Whitehead; 'The Tree on the Hill' and 'The Disinterment' by Duane W. Rimel; 'Till A' the Seas' and 'The Night Ocean' by R.H. Barlow.
