Synopsis

"The Unnamable" is a horror short story by American author H. P. Lovecraft. It was written in September 1923, first published in the July 1925 issue of Weird Tales, and first collected in Beyond the Wall of Sleep.
Carter, a weird fiction writer, who is likely the Randolph Carter who features in some of Lovecraft's other tales such as The Statement of Randolph Carter, meets with his close friend, Joel Manton, in a cemetery near an old, dilapidated house on Meadow Hill in the town of Arkham, Massachusetts. As the two sit upon a weathered tomb, Carter tells Manton the tale of an indescribable entity that allegedly haunts the house and surrounding area. He contends that because such an entity cannot be perceived by the five senses, it becomes impossible to quantify and accurately describe, thus earning itself the term unnamable.

One of the Magicians suffers from human nature, and the brazen, devil-may-care, risk-taker Lance Alexander Sr realises he is mortal. He has a horrible dream of the angel of death killing, and the next day he meets a person in his dream. He dreads them recognising him. Furthermore, he knows they will kill him if they do and free the Angel his soul in killing him. He is scared, more scared than he ever was before. 
He knows one of them will die, but who? 
It's human nature to fear death, and that went doubly for Lancelot Alexander, the Necromancer, a grim reaper with the soul of an uncontrollable violent killer. In the past, he feared death less, but now he feared what would be released into the world when he died; his soul was a horrible killer worse than him. 
 Lance awoke from a very bad dream, screaming. 
“Lance, are you alright?” Asked his wife, spooked by her husband's screaming. 
"I saw the angel kill again," said the sweating, scared man, whom the police called a serial killer.
