  "The Call of Cthulhu" is a Cthulhu Mythos story by H. P. Lovecraft, first published in the February 1928 issue of Weird Tales Magazine. 
  "The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents." 
  With these iconic words, Lovecraft opens The Call of Cthulhu, a cornerstone of twentieth-century horror and the defining tale of his vast Cthulhu Mythos. Presented as a series of interconnected documents and testimonies, the story follows a professor's descent into the tangled threads of a global mystery—a series of strange dreams, cult activity, and ancient carvings that all point to the same terrifying revelation: the Great Old One known as Cthulhu is real—and not entirely asleep.

  The dead don’t come back, but some never leave…  
  Jack Kelly remembers everything about his wife and children. The wonderful smell of his wife’s hair, the way she whispers to him at night. His three children running through the house, the sound of their laughter. 
  That was his life before the accident. His near-death experience left him in the in-between space, somewhere between this world and whatever comes next. But he recovered and woke up as his thirteen-year-old self. 
  The doctors tell him it is a false memory, a result of his fall and the insult to his brain from his injuries.  
  “How can a thirteen-year-old boy have a wife and three children?” They ask. 
  But how can he see and hear dead people, demons, ghosts, and shadowy creatures? And if they exist, then is it so inconceivable to believe that Jack’s life as a 47-year-old man with a wife and children existed too?  
  Jack begins his journey to find out why and how. And, in the end, he resolves to find his way back to his true existence, back to his family. 
  The Book of Souls is the first book in the series. The Book of Demons is coming…

Gabriel John Utterson, a sombre London lawyer, becomes concerned for the safety and sanity of his friend and client Dr. Henry Jekyll, after the doctor begins associating with an unseemly young man named Edward Hyde. Following a spate of crimes, including blackmail and murder, and with all fingers pointing at Hyde, the lawyer sets out to free his friend from the dreadful influence of his new acquaintance. Not everything, however, is as it seems.

  In Your Dreams

  Some enemies never die. They just wait to be remembered. 
   
  Salem was meant to be a fresh start. But when ER Nurse Henry Trank starts dreaming of a woman being hunted through the snow, the nightmare follows him into daylight—right down to the pine needles tangled in his hair. 
   
  What began as a haunting dream spirals into something far more terrifying. Desperate for answers, he records himself sleeping—only to discover he's acting out the brutal final moments of the woman's life. 
   
  Henry turns to the only person in town he trusts—an enchanting, sharp-tongued, green-eyed witch with a quiet strength and a presence that feels eerily familiar. There's something between them—undeniable, electric, and older than memory. 
   
  There's just one little problem—Henry doesn't buy any of this, and time is running out. If he can't be convinced to believe in magic—or in her—Salem's dark history might just reach across three centuries to claim them both . . . again. 
   
  In Your Dreams is the captivating first book in Robert Sanborn's League of the Moon series—where magic never dies, nightmares whisper secrets, and a love once lost may be the key to breaking a centuries-old curse written in blood and shadow.
