"The Great Old Ones" consists of a set of six scenarios for Call of Cthulhu: "The Spawn" is in the Wild West, with Indians, Wobblies, and bad guys; "Still Waters" is an adventure for people who hate to lend books; "Tell Me, Have You Seen the Yellow Sign?" makes a symbolic stop-over in New Orleans; "One In Darkness" features South Boston hoodlums; "The Pale God" introduces investigators to an unusual contract; "Bad Moon Rising" is an experience to remember. The adventures can be presented in sequence, as a loose campaign; limited cross-references allow the scenarios to stand independently.

Read the collected works of H. P. Lovecraft, one of modern horror's founding fathers, the original master of the supernatural and macabre! This wonderfully composed book contains the complete fiction collection of H. P. Lovecraft's writings. Also included are H. P. Lovecraft's collaborations with other writers of weird fiction. Read The Great Old Ones and see why Lovecraft's writings have influenced almost every writer of horror, fantasy, and science fiction in the second half of the twentieth century. His work inspired such later luminaries as Stephen King, Ramsey Campbell, Bentley Little, Joe R. Lansdale, Alan Moore, Junji Ito, F. Paul Wilson, Brian Lumley, Thomas Ligotti, Caitlín R. Kiernan, William S. Burroughs, and Neil Gaiman. In his own time, Lovecraft also influenced a wide range of his peers including Robert Bloch (Psycho), Clark Ashton Smith, and Robert E. Howard (Conan the Barbarian series). Once you read his works, you will see why Stephen King called Lovecraft "the twentieth century's greatest practitioner of the classic horror tale."

Eleven Lovecraftian tales by Clark Ashton Smith. Includes The Ghoul, Hunters from Beyond, Ubbo-Sathla, Vulthoom, The Infernal Star, and others. Selected and introduced by Robert M. Price. This book is part of an expanding collection of Cthulhu Mythos horror fiction and related topics. Call of Cthulhu fiction focuses on single entities, concepts, or authors significant to readers and fans of H.P. Lovecraft.

One of the early works of pulp terror, The Horror from the Hills is the legendary first tale of the Cthulhu Mythos. It is drawn from the disturbing nightmares of Belknap Long's friend and colleague, H. P. Lovecraft, the master writer of supernatural fiction of the modern age. A blood-sucking demon from the fourth dimension is mistakenly exhibited in a Manhattan museum and feasts on the blood of its admirers. This influential tale of extraterrestrial terror, a bestseller in the 1930s and 1940s, has been out of print for more than three decades. In a relatively short narrative, Long takes us from the remotest origins of our common culture, to the center of civilized mid-twentieth-century, to the cutting edges of contemporary technology to bring us face to face with horrible bloodsucking malevolence. We are fortunate that Chaugnar Faugn is a creation of fiction, drawn from one dark mind into another's pen.

Forty days from now, a dark cult will congregate somewhere in the United States to summon a cosmic entity of infinite horror! The only hope for the world is a group of four intrepid investigators who will stop at nothing to find the necessary clues, identify the cult, and stop the great ritual before it is too late! Four Against the Great Old Ones is a game of Lovecraftian dread and horror set in the 1930s. It is an old-school pen-and-paper game that can be enjoyed in solitaire, cooperatively, or as an RPG-lite. It is a standalone game based on the Four against Darkness system, modified to include Insanity, Helpers, 8 new main characters, a unique clue system, 6 possible final encounters (each a full mini-game), and more. Narrative-driven and true to its source material, Four Against the Great Old Ones will provide you with a deep immersion in Lovecraft's world. The game is designed to be challenging, and will require determination, bravery, skill, and favorable astral alignments to win. Do you dare to pursue this dangerous investigation? Do you dare to face the Great Old Ones?
