Possibly the most widely known tale written by gothic horror writer H.P Lovecraft; the Call of Cthulhu is a short story published in 1928 about a young man who inherits a strange body of work from his deceased Uncle, who had been researching a dark and unknown cult, and mysterious happenings of March 1925...
Heavily inspired by a dream that Lovecraft claimed he had in 1920, the Call of Cthulhu was been well regarded by his contemporaries and has been heavily adapted across the decades.
