Dos obras maestras del terror cósmico: Lovecraft en su momento más atmósferico e inquietante.Este volumen reúne dos relatos fundamentales de H. P. Lovecraft (1890-1937), uno de los escritores de terror más influyentes de la historia literaria y padre de la ficción extraña.En El horror de Red Hook (1925), el detective neoyorquino Thomas Malone investiga una serie de desapariciones que lo llevan a las laberínticas calles del barrio de Red Hook, en Brooklyn, y más profundo aún, al sombrío reino de antiguos cultos ocultistas cuyas raíces se hunden en los rincones más prohibidos de la historia humana. Obra de transición clave en el canon de Lovecraft, que tiende un puente entre su ficción temprana y el posterior Mito de Cthulhu.En El que susurra en la oscuridad (1931), el profesor Albert Wilmarth recibe perturbadoras cartas de un granjero de Vermont que describe extrañas criaturas acechando en las colinas tras las inundaciones primaverales. Lo que comienza como folclore se convierte en algo mucho más aterrador: una correspondencia que arrastra a Wilmarth hacia seres de un mundo más allá de la imaginación humana. Aclamada como una obra maestra del horror atmósferico, esta novela corta marca el punto álgido de los poderes de suspense y terror cósmico de Lovecraft.Juntos, estos relatos ofrecen una entrada esencial al universo de H. P. Lovecraft: un universo que ha perseguido a escritores como Jorge Luis Borges y Stephen King, y a cineastas como David Lynch y Guillermo del Toro. 10
