Trade Paperback of The Innswich Horror

The sickest writer in horror takes on the Cthulhu Mythos

In July, 1939, antiquarian and H.P. Lovecraft aficionado, Foster Morley, takes a scenic bus tour through the wilds of northern Massachusetts. He wants to go where Lovecraft went, and to see what Lovecraft saw, to further distill his understanding of history’s most impacting horror fantasist.

When he happens upon the curious, secluded waterfront prefect known as Innswich Point–not to be found on any map–he assumes the curiosity of the name is mere coincidence, but in less than twenty-four hours he’ll learn that he couldn’t be more mistaken.

Deeper and deeper, then, Morley delves into the queer town’s dark mystique. Has his imagination run rampant, or are there far too many similarities between this furtive fishing village and the fictional town of Lovecraft’s masterpiece, The Shadow Over Innsmouth? Could it be possible that Lovecraft himself actually visited this town before his death in 1937?

Join splatter king Edward Lee for a private tour of Innswich Point – a town founded on perversion, torture, and abominations from the sea.

Surfacing from Deadite Press much sooner than you think . . .

Great artwork. Find it even better than the Cemetery Dance cover. Looking forward to reading this one.

I assume it will also be available at Amazon like the two collections?

Yep. It should be available in a few weeks.

Oh yeah, the cover art is by horror legend Alan M Clark.

Great cover. The CD cover doesn't tie into the story as far as I can see.....

Holy Crap... that cover is probably my FAVORITE of the Ed Lee books. It reminds me of 70s/80s Cthulhu mythos book cover. Beautiful. Fucking beautiful. I simply cannot wait to read this one.

I am a huge fan of Alan M Clarks work. He has done some of my favorite book covers and this one does not disappoint. Well done to all involved.

How much is this one going to be on sale for? is it a full length?

Looks great.

John: It is now available at amazon.com for $10.95 and it should be full length. I don't know how long the limited version is, but the paperback version is about 170 pages. I would guess that there is no difference in the length. I'm sure Ed can verify this for us.

Thank for that heads up. I didn't realize it was already on Amazon.

Yep - the paperback is the same contents as the hardcover.

I was so excited to see this available earlier today...and ordered it!

Thanks, all, for your interest, as always. Innswich is technically a "novel" (it's 50,000 words) a little shorter than a typical mass market novel.

Got mine in two days ago....it looks great! Now....when is Haunter of the Threshold coming out in this format, I wonder...

Haunter is still in the very early stages but it will be out by this same company. Wish I could be more definitive on the release date. I think you'll like it!
