"Erinnerung“ (eng. Original: Memory) ist eine Kurzgeschichte des amerikanischen Horror- und Science-Fiction-Autors H. P. Lovecraft, die 1919 geschrieben und im Mai 1923 in The National Amateur veröffentlicht wurde. "Erinnerung" verwendet viele von Lovecrafts üblichen Bildern und Ideen, wie Relikte der tiefen Vergangenheit und Dinge "ohne Namen". Auch seine Vorliebe für riesige, monolithische Ruinen (ein Favorit vieler anderer Cthulhu- und Horrorautoren) wird in der komplizierten Beschreibung dieser Geschichte deutlich.

Author Donna Trovato presents disturbing stories intended to make you ponder, cringe, shudder, or gasp.

Decades after his death in 1896, Professor Marchworth’s “Emotion Resonator” would be called “The Cabinet of Sorrows” as it was exhibited through a series of London sideshows. A poster preserved in the London Museum of Curiosities bills the cabinet as “an object cured in anguish, stained in grief, and varnished with madness”, a far cry from the Oxford Psychiatrist’s intended legacy.
