The Dunwich Horror is a true classic of American horror and a dark tale of powers from beyond our world written by H.P. Lovecraft, a giant of horror literature and popular culture.
Since the 1920s, Lovecraft’s short stories and novels have spellbound generations and influenced countless games, comics, novels, records, and films. His novella The Dunwich Horror, written in 1928 and first published in Weird Tales in 1929, is an absolute classic. Now, François Baranger presents the epic illustrated version of the story, a beautifully produced hardback book in the huge 262 X 350mm folio format, bringing Lovecraft’s horror to life with lavish, full-spread images.
The critically acclaimed artist François Baranger was fascinated early on by Lovecraft’s works that explore the darkest corners of human imagination. After dreaming about illustrated versions of Lovecraft’s works for years, Baranger finally began to create his own vision of the Lovecraftian horror. He has previously interpreted the classics The Call of Cthulhu and At the Mountains of Madness, published by Free League in collaboration with Design Studio Press which received international praise.
