Zombie Stories of H. P. Lovecraft Synopsis

"e;A fantastic anthology by the true master of horror fiction. Highly recommended."e; — Book Nutter's Book Reviews "e;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."e; — 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 "e;The Outsider,"e; the tale of a recluse whose overwhelming loneliness emboldens him to seek out human contact. Subsequent stories include "e;Herbert West―Reanimator,"e; written as a satire of Frankenstein and used as the source for a popular horror film; "e;In the Vault,"e; in which an undertaker experiences supernatural revenge; "e;Cool Air,"e; an account of a doctor's fanatical obsession with defying death; and "e;Pickman's Model,"e; focusing on an artist's gallery of nightmares. "e;The Thing on the Doorstep"e; concludes the compilation with the compelling tale of a man whose body is preyed upon by a spirit that refuses to die. "e;Highly recommended. A great way to re-animate Lovecraft's standing as a master of the horror genre."e; —Looking for a Good Book"e;A delightfully horrific collection of tales that will thrill any horror fan!"e; — A Universe in Words
