Book excerpt: "The Dreams in the Witch House" is a horror short story by American writer H. P. Lovecraft, part of the Cthulhu Mythos cycle. Written in January/February 1932, it was first published in the July 1933 issue of Weird Tales. Walter Gilman, a student of mathematics and folklore at Miskatonic University, rents an attic room in the "Witch House," a house in Arkham, Massachusetts that is rumored to be cursed. The house once harboured Keziah Mason, an accused witch who disappeared mysteriously from a Salem jail in 1692. Gilman discovers that, for the better part of two centuries, many of the attic's occupants have died prematurely. The dimensions of Gilman's attic room are unusual and seem to conform to a kind of unearthly geometry. Gilman theorizes that the structure can enable travel from one plane or dimension to another.
Book Synopsis The Literary Haunted House by : Rebecca Janicker
Download or read book The Literary Haunted House written by Rebecca Janicker and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-01-09 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The haunted house of American fiction is an iconic union of setting and theme with an enduring presence in popular culture that traces its lineage to the early English Gothic novels. Blurring the boundaries between past and present, the living and the dead, the haunted house--synonymous with the dark side of domesticity--challenges accepted notions of reality and wields a special power over the reader's imagination. Focusing on the work of H. P. Lovecraft, Richard Matheson and Stephen King, this critical work offers a fresh perspective on one of the most popular motifs in American fiction. Case studies demonstrate how these authors have kept the past alive while highlighting the complexities of modern society, using their ghostly tales to celebrate and challenge 20th century American history and culture.

Download or read book The Shunned House And Other Stories (Annotated) written by H. P. Lovecraft and published by Exceller Books. This book was released on with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Howard Phillips Lovecraft (1890-1937) was an influential American writer of weird and horror fiction. Lovecraft's writing often explored themes of existential dread, forbidden knowledge, and the insignificance of humanity in the face of incomprehensible cosmic forces. In this book, we present you with five stories of Lovecraft—‘The Shunned House,’ ‘The Haunter of the Dark,’ ‘The Picture in the House,’ ‘The Rats in the Walls,’ and ‘The Dreams in the Witch House,’—each in its own way reveals his mastery of cosmic horror, weaving together ancient evils and the fragility of human sanity. In ‘The Shunned House,’ Lovecraft delves into the history of a cursed dwelling, its dark secrets, and the sinister forces that plague its residents. ‘The Haunter of the Dark’ explores the terror of forbidden knowledge and the dreadful consequences of uncovering ancient truths. ‘The Picture in the House’ and ‘The Rats in the Walls’ delve into the hidden horrors lurking in the past, in old books and beneath the foundations of ancestral homes, reminding us that history can be a grim and unsettling revelation. Finally, ‘The Dreams in the Witch House’ takes readers on a journey through the ominous corridors of Arkham, where academic curiosity leads to encounters with eldritch horrors. Lovecraft's blend of psychological dread and cosmic malevolence continues to make these stories essential reading for fans of horror fiction, leaving a lasting impression on those who dare to explore the depths of his eldritch imagination.

Lovecraft. An indispensable collection of the best of one of literature’s “most critically fascinating and yet enigmatic figures” (Alan Moore), featuring H. P. Lovecraft’s most bone-chilling tales, including: “Dagon”, “The Outsider”, “The Music of Erich Zann”, “The Rats in the Walls”, “The Call of Cthulhu", “The Colour Out of Space”, “The Dunwich Horror”, “The Shadow over Innsmouth”, “The Shadow Out of Time” and “The Haunter of the Dark”. Though he died an unknown, dejected pulp-magazine writer in 1937, Howard Phillips Lovecraft is now considered the first great “genius of weird fiction” (Peter Straub). There is no better guide through the peculiarities of his universe than Leslie S. Klinger, whose work as annotator of the “exciting and definitive” (Danielle Trussoni, New York Times Book Review) New Annotated H. P. Lovecraft has proven him a leading Lovecraft scholar. Keenly aware of the author’s inspiration of “dozens—hundreds—of stories written by others playing in [his] galactic sandbox,” Klinger now presents this essential reader’s edition for both fanatics and newcomers to the canon. Equipped with explanatory annotations and sharp historical insight, this highly accessible?collection features Lovecraft’s ten most profound and unnerving short stories. From the early tale “Dagon” to the mature and sprawling “The Haunter of the Dark,” these expertly curated stories built a Lovecraftian sense of dread that has reverberated in the world of horror literature for generations: that all of us are “outsiders” in the universe.
Book Synopsis A Feeling of Wrongness by : Joseph Packer
Download or read book A Feeling of Wrongness written by Joseph Packer and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2018-11-28 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A Feeling of Wrongness, Joseph Packer and Ethan Stoneman confront the rhetorical challenge inherent in the concept of pessimism by analyzing how it is represented in an eclectic range of texts on the fringes of popular culture, from adult animated cartoons to speculative fiction. Packer and Stoneman explore how narratives such as True Detective, Rick and Morty, Final Fantasy VII, Lovecraftian weird fiction, and the pop ideology of transhumanism are better suited to communicate pessimistic affect to their fans than most carefully argued philosophical treatises and polemics. They show how these popular nondiscursive texts successfully circumvent the typical defenses against pessimism identified by Peter Wessel Zapffe as distraction, isolation, anchoring, and sublimation. They twist genres, upend common tropes, and disturb conventional narrative structures in a way that catches their audience off guard, resulting in belief without cognition, a more rhetorically effective form of pessimism than philosophical pessimism. While philosophers and polemicists argue for pessimism in accord with the inherently optimistic structures of expressive thought or rhetoric, Packer and Stoneman show how popular texts are able to communicate their pessimism in ways that are paradoxically freed from the restrictive tools of optimism. A Feeling of Wrongness thus presents uncharted rhetorical possibilities for narrative, making visible the rhetorical efficacy of alternate ways and means of persuasion.
