Jacques Cazotte (1719-1792) è stato uno scrittore francese, ghigliottinato durante il regime delTerrore. La sua celebrità si lega al racconto “Il diavolo innamorato”, pubblicato nel 1772, racconto immerso nell’esoterismo, in cui è evidente l’esortazione alla prudenza nell’avvicinarsi alla magia e alla cabala. La bellissima donna che turba i sonni del protagonista, Don Alvaro Maravillas, è reale o fantastica? O appartiene ad un regno che è diverso sia dalla realtà fisica che da quella immaginaria?

"B-Sogno" è un doppio sogno. Due figure. Due visioni. Due solitudini. Storie quotidiane come frammenti di una realtà filtrata dal sogno, scosse da un paesaggio sonoro che amplifica e distorce. Un dittico onirico in cui si mescolano due esistenze, due vite, due luoghi.

Though The Street tries to remain in the realm of horror and the supernatural, what it really amounts to is one of the earliest written documents of Lovecraft’s political stance and stance on other races.

When a “vast group of terrorists” living in the neighborhood plot to overthrow the federal government on July 4th, the street decides to take matters into its own (metaphorical) hands.

First published in an 1849 edition of The Flag of Our Union, "Hop-Frog" is a revenge tale akin to "The Cask of Amontillado".

In the near future, Britain has given up its constitutional monarchy to become a republic. But though the crown is a museum piece and the family no longer bears its ancient titles, Stephen Windsor feels the stirrings of the lives of ancient sacred kings in his bones, which is not surprising, as at key points in Britain's history, he has been reincarnated to perform the supreme kingly act. And though the throne is empty and forgotten, the land remembers and calls once more for a crown upon a royal head - and royal blood upon the ground.

Lovecraftian themes abound in the tales of an intern at a madhouse and an illiterate madman. Slater, the madman whose unspeakable crimes led him to the madhouse, is continuously awakened in this story by surprisingly literate hallucinations of a glowing entity seeking revenge.

The Lurking Fear includes examples of Lovecraft's earliest weird fiction including "Hypnos", "What the Moon Brings", "Imprisoned with the Pharaohs", and "Memory" (inspiration for the 2014 film of the same name), as well as the title story, "The Lurking Fear", a traditional horror study commissioned by George Julian Houtain to be run as a serial in Home Brew magazine in 1923 that has served as the source material for multiple films and been adapted into a comic book.

A lot happens in this very short story by H.P. Lovecraft, but it begins as the title might lend itself to imagine - with a terrible old man.

Their plan goes horribly wrong when one of the three hears screaming from the getaway car. When he enters the house, he finds the hideous, yellow-eyed man staring evilly at him, waiting to usher in his doom.

But everything is about to change as Sweeney learns that her two new best friends are the goddess' Chosen Ones.
