Fascinated by New England's haunted past, a young man journeys through its ancient towns on his way to Arkham. Offered a detour through Innsmouth--an isolated coastal settlement dreaded by its neighbors--he becomes intrigued after seeing strange gold jewelry from the town, its design both exquisite and disturbing. Drawn by curiosity, he decides to visit.Once a prosperous fishing port and thriving industrial center, Innsmouth is now a shadow of its former self--its wharves rotting, its streets silent, and its people marked by unsettling deformities. Despite his growing unease, the traveler feels compelled to uncover the truth behind its decay. An old drunkard, Zadok Allen, reveals the town's grim history: in the 1800s, Captain Obed Marsh founded a pagan cult, the Esoteric Order of Dagon, after striking a pact with sea-dwelling beings who promised prosperity in exchange for unholy offerings.When his bus breaks down, the traveler is forced to spend the night in Innsmouth. As darkness falls, he wanders the narrow, crumbling streets, feeling unseen eyes upon him and hearing the sea whisper through the alleys.With The Shadow over Innsmouth, Lovecraft fashioned one of the great masterpieces of early twentieth-century horror--a cornerstone of his "cosmic regionalism," whose influence has echoed through the imaginations of generations of writers and artists.Ever captivated by the strange universe of H.P. Lovecraft, François Baranger--an illustrator acclaimed worldwide for his work as a concept artist in film and video games--has undertaken the monumental task of bringing the author's most iconic stories to life through illustration.
