Part of a new six-volume series of the best in classic horror, selected by award-winning director Guillermo del Toro.

Howard Phillips Lovecraft''s unique contribution to American literature was a melding of traditional supernaturalism (derived chiefly from Edgar Allan Poe) with the genre of science fiction that emerged in the early 1920s. The Thing on the Doorstep and Other Weird Storiesbrings together a dozen of the master''s tales - from his early short stories ''Under the Pyramids'' (originally ghostwritten for Harry Houdini) and ''The Music of Erich Zann'' (which Lovecraft ranked second among his own favourites) through to his more fully developed works, ''The Dunwich Horror'', ''The Case of Charles Dexter Ward'', and ''At the Mountains of Madness''. The book presents the definitive corrected texts of these works, along with Lovecraft critic and biographer S. T. Joshi''s illuminating introduction and notes to each story.

Howard Phillips Lovecraft (1890-1937) was born in Providence, Rhode Island, where he spent most of his life. His relatively small body of work - three novels and sixty short stories - has nevertheless exercised an incalculable influence on horror and supernatural fiction.
