Description:

The Lurking Fear is a dark and atmospheric tale of isolation, buried corruption, and subterranean terror from H. P. Lovecraft.

After a series of brutal deaths in the Catskills, an investigator journeys to the dreaded Tempest Mountain to uncover the truth behind rumors of something monstrous lurking in the darkness. But as violent storms rage across the mountain and people vanish without trace, he begins to uncover signs of a horrifying secret hidden beneath the earth.

With its thunder-soaked atmosphere, creeping dread, and nightmarish revelations, The Lurking Fear remains one of Lovecraft’s most chilling and grotesque tales of cosmic and inhuman horror.
