Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Venture at your own risk into a realm where the sun sinks into oblivion-and all that is unholy, unearthly, and unspeakable rises. These rare, hard-to-find collaborations of cosmic terror are back in print, including
* Wentworth's Day A fellow figures his debt to a dead man is null and void, until he discovers just how terrifying interest rates can be.
* The Shuttered Room A sophisticated gentleman must settle his grandfather's estate, only to find that the house shelters dark secrets.
* The Dark Brotherhood A beautiful woman and her companion meet the likes of Edgar Allan Poe, in a tale as terrifying as anything Poe himself ever created.
* Innsmouth Clay A sculptor returns from Paris to create a statue not entirely of this world-and not at all under his control.
* Witches' Hollow A new schoolteacher puts his soul in peril while trying to save one of his students from a ravenous creature.
Originally published in different form in hardcover in the U.S. by Arkam House Publishers in 1974. This edition first published by Carroll & Graff in paperback in 1991--T.p. verso.
