About this ebook
Parallel worlds, unsolved family secrets, evil spirits, alien matter, witchcraft and magic, cursed places, visions beyond the human mind – Lovecraft's world of fiction is not only filled with Cthulhu myths. His universe is inhabited by other unknown and unfathomable creatures that come from the depths of forests, impassable swamps, deep caves, mysterious dungeons and even other times and dimensions, which can be accidentally entered by opening a window in the attic. Lovecraft wrote one of his first stories, "The Beast in the Cave," when he was only 14 years old. Short story "The Color Out of Space" the author considered one of his best works. The original plots of Lovecraft's mystical stories became the basis for popular songs, movies, and computer games. The famous writer Stephen King considers Howard Lovecraft his inspiration. "The Colour Out of Space" appeared in the September 1927 edition of Hugo Gernsback's science fiction magazine Amazing Stories. The story revolves around the area known as the "blasted heath" near the fictional town of Arkham, Massachusetts. Many years ago a meteorite crashed there, poisoning every living being nearby; vegetation grows large but foul-tasting, animals are driven mad and deformed into grotesque shapes, and the people go insane or die one by one.
