At the Mountains of Madness is a science-fiction and cosmic horror novella by the American author H. P. Lovecraft. The story was inspired by Lovecraft's interest in Antarctic exploration; the continent was still not fully explored in the 1930s. Lovecraft explicitly draws from Edgar Allan Poe's novel The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket, and he may have used other stories for inspiration. These events include the discovery of an ancient civilization older than the human race, and realization of Earth's past told through various sculptures and murals.

H. P. Lovecraft

H. P. Lovecraft (1890–1937) was an American writer renowned for his influential contributions to the horror genre, especially cosmic horror. His novella The Lurking Fear (1923) delves into themes of ancestral corruption and primal terror, set against a bleak, atmospheric backdrop. Lovecraft’s stories, characterized by eerie settings, ancient beings, and an underlying sense of dread, have profoundly shaped modern horror and science fiction. Though underappreciated in his lifetime, Lovecraft’s works have since gained a cult following worldwide.
