H.P. LovecraftThe Dunwich Horror
The town had a frightening way of recognizing a lost piece when it came home and welcomed it accordingly. The stone-crowned Sentinel Hill stirred with the screams and cries of presences better left unnamed. The dogs barked violently at certain hours and the trees swayed madly at nights with no breeze. Something old and unholy had been brought under Lavinia's roof to remind the few residents of Dunwich why the town was feared and forsaken by the world.
Wilbur Whateley, her charismatic but strange-looking son had been quite vocal about his intent to summon the cosmic deity that fathered him and the unorthodox methods he employed were no secret either. His obsession was such that led to the raid of Miskatonic University and the subsequent theft of its most dreaded possession: an ancient occult grimoire with nothing in its pages but terror and the harrowing realization of humanity's impermanence on the earth. The terrible Necronomicon which his late grandfather had used to such an extent that earned every Whateley a foul reputation among natives and foreigners.
The heist sprung Arkham authorities into action early in the morning but the boy had already fled with the frightful manual and his capture would be a challenge for any man who dared seek him. No-one in their right mind would set foot in Dunwich, the mouldering stain on the state of Massachusetts that reeked of rumbles beneath the hills, perversion and decadence.
No-one.
