Synopsis

Ashleigh and her little family of misfits are on the run, searching for a new home where they can rest and finally get clean. The police hot on their heels, they flee to the abandoned asylum at the top of the mountain, thinking it’s the perfect starting point for their long road to recovery. They’re ready for this. They long for their new life. The asylum is in disrepair with no running water or electricity. It does provide shelter, but maybe they are not alone in seeking it. If only they’d considered that the darkness they had run to might be even more shadowed than the one they were running from.

    As the novel progresses, readers encounter a landscape overshadowed by terror, with hints that these events may stem from something deeper within humanity itself. Machen invites readers to explore the darkness beneath the surface, ultimately reflecting on fear’s power to unravel ordinary life.

    Weird things dwell in the hidden corners of Britain: haunted dolls, cunning shapeshifters, monstrous owls, and mad magicians. And there are weird places, too. Beyond the veil of the waking world, lie realms of secrets, domains of madness. 
    So continues the saga, of Peter Van Melsen... 
    The tall, gaunt and mysterious Van Melsen was born out of Ian’s love of occult detective fiction—Algernon Blackwood’s John Silence and William Hope Hodgson’s Thomas Carnacki being among his favourite paranormal investigators. 
    The second volume of stories chronicles the ongoing exploits of the peculiar P. I., as he continues to tread the road less travelled.

    The Night Ocean

    A quiet, contemplative tale steeped in atmosphere and artistic beauty. A painter retreats to a seaside cottage in search of rest and inspiration, but soon begins to sense strange presences along the shore and beneath the waves. Are they ghosts, sea ghouls, or beings older than time itself? The answers drift just out of reach, like mist over the ocean. 
    The story focuses on the sensations and intuitions of the main character, imbuing the whole narrative with an evocative taste of elusive dread, quite distinct from overt horror. The Night Ocean has long been part of the Lovecraftian canon, even though a manuscript discovered in the early 2000s, with Lovecraft’s revisions, reveals that only 10% of ‘The Night Ocean’ can be attributed to the writer from Providence. This realization underscores how sensitive and precocious the eighteen-year-old Robert H. Barlow was at the time. 
    It stands as the last existing work of fiction in which Lovecraft participated.
