The Shadow over Innsmouth is great a horror novella by H. P. Lovecraft, written in 1931, which forms part of the Cthulhu Mythos, using its motif of a malign undersea civilization. It also makes references to several shared elements of the Mythos, including place names, mythical creatures and invocations.


The narrator, who is a student on an antiquarian tour of New England, sees a piece of exotic jewelry in a museum, and learns that its source is the nearby decrepit seaport of Innsmouth. Then he travels to Innsmouth and observes disturbing events and people.


This is the only Lovecraft story which was published in book form during his lifetime.

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.
