Let’s read two stories from Lovecraft, “The Nameless City” from 1921 “The Hound” the next year. In many ways these are the beginning of the story as he includes various elements that are Mythos-ized later. Such as the Necronomicon as well as the plateau of Leng. After seeing what Carter did, let’s pull back and review the Master at work, shall we?


HP Lovecraft,s the Hound – written in 1922 and published two years later. You can find them both online here:

"The Nameless City" by H. P. Lovecraft


"The Hound" by H. P. Lovecraft

Nameless has 5000 words but Hound rocks fewer than 3000 words in it, so it shouldn’t be too much to read.
