'A fantastic anthology by the true master of horror fiction. Highly recommended.' — Book Nutter's Book Reviews 'This is an excellent collection of Lovecraft's 'zombie' stories, which serves both as a treat to old fans and a sampler to people who haven't read Lovecraft before. I would highly recommend this collection.' — Of Stacks and Cups Joyce Carol Oates, Stephen King, and other experts on horror fiction deem H. P. Lovecraft the master teller of weird tales. These six chilling stories ? all published between 1921 and 1933 ? offer compelling journeys into the land of the undead. The collection begins with 'The Outsider,' the tale of a recluse whose overwhelming loneliness emboldens him to seek out human contact. Subsequent stories include 'Herbert West?Reanimator,' written as a satire of Frankenstein and used as the source for a popular horror film; 'In the Vault,' in which an undertaker experiences supernatural revenge; 'Cool Air,' an account of a doctor's fanatical obsession with defying death; and 'Pickman's Model,' focusing on an artist's gallery of nightmares. 'The Thing on the Doorstep' concludes the compilation with the compelling tale of a man whose body is preyed upon by a spirit that refuses to die. 'Highly recommended. A great way to re-animate Lovecraft's standing as a master of the horror genre.' —Looking for a Good Book'A delightfully horrific collection of tales that will thrill any horror fan!' — A Universe in Words
