  In the story fragment, the narrator is given an ancient book by a strange bookseller, and when he takes it home and examines it, weird and sinister events ensue.
  In October 1933, Lovecraft wrote in a letter: I am at a sort of standstill in writing disgusted at much of my older work, and uncertain as to avenues of improvement. In recent weeks I have done a tremendous amount of experimenting with different styles and perspectives, but have destroyed most of the results.

  Some doors should never be opened, and some names should never be spoken aloud. 
  In the isolated, decaying hamlet of Dunwich, Massachusetts, the sky is shadowed by deeply wooded mountains, and the locals whisper of things unseen. When the strange, goatish Wilbur Whateley is born, his rapid, unnatural growth and insatiable hunger for the forbidden dark magic of his ancestors sets off a chain of terrifying events. His quest to unlock the cursed pages of the legendary Necronomicon draws the attention of Miskatonic University's Dr. Henry Armitage. But a far greater monstrosity is growing within the boarded-up Whateley farmhouse—a formless, mountainous entity that threatens to break free and strip the earth of humanity entirely. As the invisible nightmare ravages the countryside, leaving massive devastation in its wake, a desperate battle for the survival of the planet begins on the altar-crowned summit of Sentinel Hill. 
  You will love this classic of cosmic Horror for its creeping dread, masterful atmospheric tension, and unforgettable eldritch abominations. It perfectly balances chilling paranormal suspense with the macabre terror of a gothic rural New England setting. Fans of dark fantasy, occult fiction, and Cthulhu Mythos lore will find themselves completely paralyzed by its sinister soundscapes and apocalyptic stakes. 
  H. P. Lovecraft (1890–1937) was an American writer who pioneered the weird fiction genre and created the legendary Cthulhu Mythos. His unparalleled ability to evoke the terrifying insignificance of mankind against a universe of unimaginable cosmic horrors cemented his legacy as one of the most influential authors of the twentieth century.

  Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author’s brain, their soul and heart.  A few pages can lift our lives into locations, people and experiences with a sweep of landscape, narration, feelings and emotions that is difficult to achieve elsewhere. 
   
  In this series we try to offer up tried and trusted ‘Top Tens’ across many different themes and authors. But any anthology will immediately throw up the questions – Why that story? Why that author?  
   
  The theme itself will form the boundaries for our stories which range from well-known classics, newly told, to stories that modern times have overlooked but perfectly exemplify the theme.  Throughout the volume our authors whether of instant recognition or new to you are all leviathans of literature. 
   
  Some you may disagree with but they will get you thinking; about our choices and about those you would have made.  If this volume takes you on a path to discover more of these miniature masterpieces then we have all gained something. 
   
  In this volume we examine Gothic short stories from the woman’s point of view.  More usually in this genre the main examples are almost always given as male.  Well, in this volume we prove that view needs severely testing.  Here we explore works by classic women authors who, with the sheer breadth of their talents and narratives, can make mere men seem tame by comparison.
