Robert W. Chambers' The King in Yellow is one of the most haunting and influential horror collections ever written. Published in 1895, these linked stories introduced the world to a mysterious play that, once read, infects the soul with despair, madness, or worse.
This modern translation presents Chambers' hypnotic tales in fresh, accessible language while retaining their ethereal dread and psychological depth. Moving between dreamlike romances and nightmarish horrors, the stories whisper of forbidden knowledge, unknowable forces, and strange symbols that bind reality to something darker.
What You'll Discover in This Modern Translation:
Dare to read The King in Yellow, but remember: some stories should stay hidden.
