  "The Call of Cthulhu" is a Cthulhu Mythos story by H. P. Lovecraft, first published in the February 1928 issue of Weird Tales Magazine. 
  "The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents." 
  With these iconic words, Lovecraft opens The Call of Cthulhu, a cornerstone of twentieth-century horror and the defining tale of his vast Cthulhu Mythos. Presented as a series of interconnected documents and testimonies, the story follows a professor's descent into the tangled threads of a global mystery—a series of strange dreams, cult activity, and ancient carvings that all point to the same terrifying revelation: the Great Old One known as Cthulhu is real—and not entirely asleep.

  Sand by Algernon Blackwood is a chilling work of early supernatural fiction that transforms the vast silence of the desert into a living nightmare. When a group of travelers ventures into an isolated, sun-scorched landscape, they begin to sense an unseen presence lurking beneath the endless dunes—something ancient, intelligent, and profoundly hostile to human life. As the desert tightens its grip, ordinary reality erodes, replaced by mounting dread and the terrifying suggestion that the sand itself is watching. 
  Blending psychological tension with cosmic horror, Blackwood masterfully evokes fear through atmosphere rather than spectacle. The story explores humanity’s insignificance when confronted with primordial forces beyond comprehension, using the desert as both setting and antagonist. Sparse, relentless, and deeply unsettling, Sand stands as a landmark of weird fiction and an essential read for fans of H.P. Lovecraft, Arthur Machen, and classic supernatural horror.

Is stealing back your own stolen thing, really theft or is it? This is the situation where this coroner, Blake, finds himself in. 
  On a lonely quiet misty night after midnight in Melbourne, anything can happen and it did. At that hour, only the reckless and unprincipled wander around. 
  On such a night as this, a straggler from a theatre was wandering in the cool calming night remembering a lost daughter who he'd lost many years ago on a night like this. This day, to be exact, 28 years earlier. She was murdered with her husband as they walked the street he was in. He came as he always did this night to lay a rose for them. He did so unbothered, for all the times he had come. Before that night. He pulled out an old locket and looked at it sadly and opened it, looking at the pictures inside it. They were his daughter and her husband. The father pulled a red rose from his inside coat pocket and lay the rose on the wet road. As the father knelt laying the rose there was a noise nearby on the road like a splash in the puddle, he looked up and saw a man with a gun trained on him.
