Tornato dal suo viaggio a Milano, Thomas de Quincey, giornalista inglese, comincia ad avere dei sogni particolari, quasi delle allucinazioni tachicardiche. Potrebbe essere solo soggezione, una reazione nervosa al luogo in cui ha soggiornato in Italia, la casa dei Conti Imbonati, notoriamente accostata a voci di fantasmi e spettri. Fatto sta che ora, tornato in Inghilterra, Thomas continua a fare sogni che non aveva mai fatto prima. Ce n'è uno in particolare che ritrae tre dame a lui sconosciute, tre Madri dell'Occulto che tormentano le sue notti.

Chi non è curioso di scavare nelle allucinazioni, in quei sogni psicotropi dove panico e orrore assumono la forma di quel che non vogliamo vedere? O di scoprire le origini letterarie dei vampiri, la loro prima apparizione su carta e inchiostro? O ancora, di leggere di assassini, presagi di morte, cuori pulsanti, pendoli e corvi neri — chi, insomma, non desidera indagare nelle proprie paure? In questo volume, quattro storie tra le più classiche del genere, racconti che hanno influenzato cultura pop e letteratura, cinema e televisione.

E se quello che più ci spaventa, il mostro sotto il letto, non fosse così irreale come crediamo? Paura, occulto e fantascienza. Storie di mostri e creature, provenienti dalle profondità del mare e della terra, agiscono in una realtà parallela alla nostra, così vicina da sfiorarsi e fondersi. In questa raccolta sono presenti tutti i simboli, le ambientazioni, le tematiche e i personaggi che hanno reso H.P. Lovecraft uno degli autori dell'orrore più amati della letteratura mondiale. Howard Phillips Lovecraft (1890-1937) è considerato uno degli autori più importanti e apprezzati della letteratura mondiale.
