  The Beast in the Cave by H. P. Lovecraft - Lost in the pitch-black depths of a cave, a man faces the terror of the unknown—until he discovers he’s not alone. A chilling tale of primal fear. 
  The Beast in the Cave began its journey in the spring of 1904, with the final draft completed in April 1905—when H. P. Lovecraft was just 14 years old. The knack for crafting compelling tales at such a young age seems to be a hallmark of truly brilliant authors. The Beast in the Cave was first published in the June 1918 issue of the amateur journalism publication The Vagrant.
