First published in 1928, The Call of Cthulhu is the cornerstone of cosmic horror-a genre that confronts readers with the vast, indifferent universe and the fragile place humans occupy within it. This modern adaptation preserves Lovecraft's eerie atmosphere and mounting dread while refining his prose for today's audience.
As professor Francis Wayland Thurston pieces together a puzzle of shipwreck survivors, cult rituals, and disturbing sculptures, he uncovers a horrifying truth: the Great Old One, Cthulhu, dreams beneath the Pacific, ready to awaken and reclaim the Earth. From New Orleans swamps to the icy Antarctic seas, every discovery points to an ancient doom that no mortal can escape.
