About this book
A curious investigator and his uncle probe the sinister history of an old New England house where, for generations, tenants have sickened and died, and something monstrous seems to fester in the damp cellar. Blending real Providence history with cosmic dread, Lovecraft builds toward a horrifying confrontation with an ancient, vampiric evil. One of his most tightly constructed tales, it fuses gothic atmosphere with the scientific rationalism that distinguishes his weird fiction. A superb example of Lovecraftian horror, The Shunned House delivers slow-burning terror rooted in place, decay, and the unspeakable things that lie beneath.
