I never could get through Lovecraft's fiction. At least now I know what they're about.

Really great graphic version of some of Lovecraft's most famous tales. Very spooky and strange, but also very accessible! The illustrations match the mood of the stories and really bring it all together.

I picked this up in hopes that the graphic novel format would help ease me into some of HP Lovecraft’s tales of horror.
I’ve been reading a lot of fiction based on Lovecraft’s work, so it was a fun way to discover which tales connect to which monsters or characters from other books I’ve been reading.
The illustrations are a bit dated but not in a bad way. The art reminded me of Spiegelman and worked well with the storytelling. The short story “Reanimator” was a bit too wordy for me compared with how other stories in the book were laid out, but overall I think this book is a great resource for introducing someone to Lovecraft’s work.
