The Gothic Masterpiece Series: The House of Souls: Illustrated Edition

Denounced as erotic, horrific, and disturbing on its first publication, Stephen King now calls Arthur Machen's The Great God Pan "Maybe the best [horror story] in the English language." In 1890, the Westminster Gazette called the story a “nightmare of sex… which would soon lead to insanity if unrestrained." His writing has been described as decadent horror, filled with the fantastical, phantasmagoric, and bizarre. The House of Souls is a collection of short stories, including the infamous "The Great God Pan," that solidified Arthur Machen among the Gothic masters. The godfather of the macabre, Aleister Crowley, hailed Machen's works as containing "Magickal" truth. Find the horrors within in this newly illustrated edition of The House of Souls from Firbolg Publishing's Gothic Masterpiece Series.
