  Long before science, there were older truths, whispered by witches, guarded by cults, and written in blood. 
  In this sinister anthology, H. P. Lovecraft explores the shadowy world of ancient rites, folk horror, and inherited blasphemies. Here, strange festivals unfold under full moons, forgotten gods stir in rural hills, and knowledge forbidden by time itself reawakens. 
  These stories draw from the primal roots of myth and superstition, where the line between folklore and fact is not just thin, but burning. 
  Including: 
  The Dreams in the Witch House 
  The Dunwich Horror 
  The Horror at Red Hook 
  The Festival 
  The Thing on the Doorstep 
  The Rats in the Walls

  The sea never forgets. The sea never forgives… 
  Scuttler's Cove is a working village, nestling in dramatic coastal scenery in Cornwall, where life has gone on uninterrupted for centuries... until this seaside idyll was discovered by the rich. 
   
  Now the quaint harbour-front cottages have been snapped up by second-homers and rental companies, and the locals can barely afford to live in their own town. 
   
  It is a very different place for Merrin Moon, who left for university at the age of eighteen and never looked back. Now in her thirties, she returns to the Cove for the first time since, after the death of her mother. 
   
  She soon discovers that there are forces at play in the village that she could never have imagined. Is someone trying to drive out the second homers? And has their arrival started a chain of events none of them will be able to stop? 
   
  For something old and terrible is awakening beneath the town's hallowed ground. And with it comes a horror that the residents have fought for generations to keep a secret.
