Lovecraft's Monsters
Author: Ellen Datlow (Editor)

Prepare to meet the wicked progeny of the master of modern horror. In Lovecraft's Monsters, H. P. Lovecraft's most famous creations appear in all their terrifying glory: the massive, tentacled Cthulhu, who lurks beneath the sea waiting for his moment to rise; Shoggoths, foetid black iridescent things, shapeless con... more »geries of protoplasmic stuff; Deep Ones, who come to shore to breed with mortal men; Elder Things, with membraneous wings stretched on a framework of glandular tubing having minute orifices at wing tips; Yog-Sothoth; the unspeakably-evil Hastur, whose very name brings death (Lovecraft borrowed the "Hastur" from Robert W. Chambers, who had, in turn, borrowed it from Ambrose Bierce); and more. In one accursed tale, something unnatural slouches from the sea into an all-night diner to meet the foolish young woman waiting for him. In another storyline the Hounds of Tindalos struggle to survive trapped in human bodies, haunting pool halls for men they can lure into the dark. Celebrating these famous beasts, each story is a gripping new take on a classic mythos creature, and each is accompanied by a spectacular original illustration that captures the monsters' unique visage. Deliciously creepy, strange, haunting, and undeniably monstrous, this is the best of Lovecraft's creatures-reawakened and re-imagined.
