Isaac Sloan, the dissolute scion of a once wealthy family, is nearing the end of his credit when he receives an urgent summons from his estranged uncle. In Arkham, he will learn of the dying man’s double life, and of long forgotten enemies newly roused. Join Isaac Sloan as he parts the veil separating the pedestrian world of early twentieth century New England from an uncharted land of riddles and horrors. In that mysterious realm called the Dreamlands, he will become enmeshed in a struggle against the servants of an incomprehensible entity. **

This collection of ten short stories is an homage to the early 20th century writing of Howard Phillips Lovecraft, pulp horror author extraordinaire. Far beyond the man’s death in 1937, Lovecraft’s unique, disturbed visions still influence every form of modern media from music to film to computer games. This influence remains as ubiquitous as the man’s original works are obscure. Join me in exploring the themes of arcane investigation, madness and cosmic dread in settings and times as diverse as “Interview With a Lunatic”’s 1920’s insane asylum and “Heartbeat”’s nameless, prehistoric village. **
