Horror Classics. Illustrated

A true connoisseur of horror sooner or later turns to the classics of the genre. Edgar Poe was one of the first to scare the readers by The Fall of the House of Usher. Howard  Lovecraft  invented Cthulhu, Dagon, Yog-Sothoth and many other dark deities, which became so popular that hundreds of fiction writers, including Neil Gaiman and Stephen King, are still expanding his mythology.
