Along the shore the cloud waves break, The twin suns sink beneath the lake, The shadows lengthen In Carcosa
First published in 1895, The King in Yellow has been heralded by many greats as one of the sires of supernatural horror. Few works have the legacy or the prestige of Chambers’ magnum opus.
A series of short stories where the protagonists all interact with a mysterious play called “The King in Yellow”. Never truly revealing what is in the document, the stories all depict what odd occurrences befall them upon their interaction with the odd tome. A truly masterful and eerie tale that has stood the test of time.
