  Some very few amongst are a little different.  They look the same, possibly act the same but, somehow, we might suspect that they are a little out of tune, a little off.   
   
  Their difference is that they have dark powers.  Powers for the greedy benefit of themselves and not you or I.  In these stories our authors have them doing some quite unconscionable actions that disturb and menace those around them and of course you and I.

  I cannot forget Carcosa where black stars hang in the heavens; where the shadows of men's thoughts lengthen in the afternoon... I pray God will curse the writer, as the writer has cursed the world with this beautiful, stupendous creation, terrible in its simplicity, irresistible in its truth - a world which now trembles before the King in Yellow.
  
  The weird tales in this slim volume are all linked by a play, the second act of which reveals truths so terrible and beautiful that it drives all who read it to despair: The King in Yellow.
  These four macabre, uncanny and unsettling stories are some of the most thrilling ever written in the field of weird fiction, and since their first publication in 1895 have become a cult classic, influencing many writers from the renowned master of cosmic horror H.P. Lovecraft to the creators of HBO's True Detective.
