  The Horror at Red Hook

  H.P. Lovecraft

  "The Horror at Red Hook" is a short story by American writer H. P. Lovecraft, written on August 1–2, 1925. "Red Hook" is a transitional tale, situated between the author's earlier work and the later Cthulhu Mythos. Although the story depicts a sinister cult, this cult offers a conventionally occult devil-worshipping threat, rather than the cosmic threat depicted in his later work. Living in poverty in the slum of Red Hook at the time of writing, Lovecraft was at this time urgently attempting to widen his markets in the pulp magazines. By having an unusually proactive Irish New York police detective as his protagonist, he hoped for a swift sale to a detective pulp, which would have opened up a new market other than his usual Weird Tales magazine. He did not get such a sale, and had to fall back on Weird Tales. "Red Hook" was thus first published in the January 1927 issue of Weird Tales.

  Praise for Victoria Scott: 
  'Beautifully written and delightfully unsettling... an evocative read, set in an unusual landscape, that will pull you in from the first page' – Rachel Burton 
  The twists and turns revealed kept me turning pages way longer than I was meant to stay awake. The way Meredith's mind gets confused as she learns more and more tugged at my heart, and reading Ellen's experiences with her beau and how his mental health was essentially compartmentalised in an era when there wasn't much knowledge was heartwrenching. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 
  'Within the tale, there are elements of the gothic tradition, with old houses, fog, rising waters, stormy weather and more. The reader's pulse rate rises as we are committed to following the action. I thoroughly enjoyed The House In The Water. It consumed me from the start. It was the first book by Victoria Scott but I certainly she she will write more.' ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 
  'Don't you love a dual time line novel? I do and this one is exceptional – I have read the author's earlier work and this is straying into much darker territory, but I think it only serves to show what a great writer she is… Atmospheric, gripping, with huge heart and impossible to put down – the very best sort of book! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Beautiful captivating prose, kept me totally engaged in both timelines.' ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 
  Wonderful. My first by this author but not the last. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 
  'This is definitely a spellbinding and unsettling tale with a dash of romance set in WW2 and 2013 that might haunt your dreams and leave you with a lot to think about! A riveting read.' ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 
  'I was engrossed in the story from the start. May Day House is a rehab house for soldiers during WWII. They are cared for and sent back to war. Years later a couple buys the house which soon appears to be haunted by the soldiers who had been there. It is a great story.' ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

  "There you are Doctor, we were looking everywhere for you. We have another job for you," an orderly said. 
  "For heaven's sake don't beat around the bush!" Grumbled the Doctor. 
  "Another freshy for you!" said the orderly. 
  "Please refrain from referring to them as freshies call them a dead person!" hissed the doctor. 
  "Ok another dead person!" said the orderly. 
  "Take me to them," the doctor demanded. 
  "Doctor Death has come to do his job," announced the orderly to the nervous nurse inside the room with the body. 
  "I'm a coroner, not Doctor Death," said the Doctor entering the room. 
  "So sorry!" a reaper said walking out of the room. The doctor ran to the bedside of the dead person. 
  "Oh my god no," the doctor said weeping tears of blue electric fire which crystalized betraying his inhumanity to his colleagues. 
  "Blue Midnight is Doctor Death!" cried the orderly. 
  "Really, Sherlock how didn't you know!" said Blake crying, 
  "I was called here by my son because my wife was critical!" 
  "I just told him about his wife's death! Hey! That's your job telling people their relatives are dead!" the orderly moaned. 
  "I'll do you the same favor one day!" snarled Blake. 
  A man in a mask and a tux stood by a grave of his friend's dead wife. 
  "Angela Alexander you will live again!" The man said, "You will reincarnate in the past!" 
  "Argent. What are you doing lurking in the graveyard!" Angela's grieving widower snapped finding it an odd place to find fate. 
  "Oh hi, Mortimer what bring the king of the grim reapers here?" Argent said. 
  "My wife is buried here It gives me a right and reason to be here," said 
  the reaper Mortimer.
