HORRORS & ABOMINATIONS: 24 Tales Of The Cthulhu Mythos by Mark McLaughlin & Michael Sheehan, Jr.
The Lovecraftian story collection HORRORS & ABOMINATIONS, which I wrote with Michael Sheehan, Jr., features new Mythos monsters that we created. The book is now available in paperback and hardcover formats, and on Kindle Unlimited.

The book includes many of the usual Lovecraftian entities, but we felt that more needed to be added to the mix.

In the book, you’ll find the traditional horrors, Cthulhu, Yog-Sothoth, Nyarlathotep, the King in Yellow, and a Mi-Go being from Yuggoth, among others. But you’ll also meet the monstrosities we created. Here are many of them:

The creature Azalareon can be found in “The Power of Azalareon.”

Toadface lurks in the story, “Toadface.”

The Sea-Spider dwells in the story, “The Sea-Spider.”

The oceanic being Yagdolak can be found in “The Lurker from the Kelp Forest.”

Setek the colossus resides in “The Colossus in the Catacombs.”

The monstrosity G’hodloth dwells within “The Thing from Beyond the Living Door.”

Two new paperbacks are now available from the writing team of Mark McLaughlin and Michael Sheehan, Jr. The stories in these books were inspired by the works of H.P. Lovecraft and Robert W. Chambers.

THE HOUSE OF THE OCELOT presents tales of Lovecraftian fantasy and horror, as well as an epic poem regarding the return of Nyarlathotep to the modern world. Most of these adventures have only been available so far on Kindle. This paperback collection is a companion volume to HORRORS & ABOMINATIONS, and has been released for readers who prefer holding books, as opposed to devices.

Stories in this collection include “The House Of The Ocelot,” “Queen Of The Vultures,” “The Foul One Lives To Destroy: A Tale Of The Dreamlands,” “Shoggoth Apocalypse,” “The Glorious Return Of Herbert West,” “The Last Witch-House,” “Stainless Steel Sarcophagus,” and many more.

The collection also includes the epic poem, “The Arrival Of Our New Master: A Lovecraftian Armageddon.” People believe that Caliban Storm, son of wealthy Bernard Storm, offers the wisdom and guidance that the world has needed for so long. But in truth, there is something very wrong with handsome young Caliban. He is in fact an avatar of Nyarlathotep, a malevolent deity also known as the Crawling Chaos….

HORRORS & ABOMINATIONS presents 24 stories of Lovecraftian fantasy and horror. Learn the unholy secrets of such malevolent beings as Cthulhu, Yog-Sothoth, Nyarlathotep, Azalareon, Mother Hydra, the King in Yellow, and Yagdolak. Discover the blasphemous activities of the Tillinghast and Delapore families … wicked Mrs. Veng and her horrendous tenant, Dr. Brandywine … and the unspeakable, mutated son of King Tutankhamun.

Stories in this collection include “Deathless Bride Of The Crawling Chaos,” “The Abominations Of Nephren-Ka,” “Coins From Y’ha-nthlei,” “The Blasphemy In The Canopic Jar,” “The Curse Of The Tillinghasts,” “The Colossus In The Catacombs,” “The Nightmare In Delapore Tower,” “The Thing From Beyond The Living Door,” “The Gateway To Carcosa,” “The Testament Of Cthulhu” and many more.

The stories and poetry in these two collections were selected from nine Kindle collections previously released by McLaughlin and Sheehan: THE ARRIVAL OF OUR NEW MASTER, STAINLESS STEEL SARCOPHAGUS, THE TESTAMENT OF CTHULHU, THE CREATURE IN THE WAXWORKS, THE RELIC IN THE EGYPTIAN GALLERY, SHOGGOTH APOCALYPSE, THE BLASPHEMY IN THE CANOPIC JAR, THE HORROR IN THE WATER TOWER, and THE ABOMINATIONS OF NEPHREN-KA.
