This may be The Second Wish, but it's the third witch's dozen of nerve-rending stories of the macabre from the man who gave you the internationally bestselling Necroscope and Vampire World series.

From Lovecraftian tales such as "The House of the Temple", "Rising With Surtsey" and the title story, to such contemporary horrors as "The Sun, the Sea, and the Silent Scream" and "The Luststone", this new collection has been culled from the writings of a true Master of Nightmares.

Book Description
Prior to the first American publication of Brian Lumley's ground-breaking, dead-waking, best-selling Necroscope in 1988—the first novel in a long-lived, much-loved series—this British author had for twenty years been earning himself something of a reputation writing short stories, novellas, and a series of novels set against H. P. Lovecraft's cosmic Cthulhu Mythos backdrop. A soldier in 1967, serving in Berlin with the Royal Military Police, Lumley jumpstarted his literary career by writing to August Derleth, the then-dean of macabre publishers at his home in Sauk City, Wisconsin, telling of his fascination with the Mythos, and purchasing books by the "Old Gentleman of Providence, RI." In addition, he sent a page or two of written work allegedly culled from the various forbidden or "black books" of the Mythos. Suitably impressed, the master of Arkham House invited Lumley to write something solid in the Mythos as a possible contribution to a new volume he was currently contemplating, to be titled—what else but?—Tales of the Cthulhu Mythos. And as might well be imagined, that set everything in motion. Years have passed since then and a good many words of Mythos fiction written, including critically acclaimed and award-nominated work, stories that have appeared in prestigious magazines such as Fantasy & Science Fiction, and hardcover volumes from publishers all over the world from the USA to China and the United Kingdom to Russia. Stories included in this collection: THE CALLER OF THE BLACK HAGGOPIAN CEMENT SURROUNDINGS THE HOUSE OF CTHULHU THE NIGHT SEA-MAID WENT DOWN NAME AND NUMBER RECOGNITION CURSE OF THE GOLDEN GUARDIANS AUNT HESTER THE KISS OF BUGG-SHASH DE MARIGNY’S CLOCK MYLAKHRION THE IMMORTAL THE SISTER CITY WHAT DARK GOD?

Book Description
There have been several editions of this book. Now it comes to you with five additional poems that have been found in recent years. It is believed there is only one poem that remains lost. In the Acrostics section you will find: “Fantasy Crossroads”, “Pesh-Tlen”, “The Skull of HPL”, and “Maggot”. In Odds and Ends section you will find: “A Dreamer”. The least of Lumley’s books, this one is the rarest and the most sought after by collectors. The “least” not only because it’s a very slim volume, but also because it’s a book of “poetry”, and the author doesn’t claim to be a poet any more than he would claim to be a watchmaker. And if he did claim to be a poet … well, he knows it would be disputed. First published by Spectre Press in 1982, if you were lucky enough to get one of the limited copies … hold on to it. It’s different and entertaining to read.

Book Description
An exhaustive work covering the full range of topics relating to vampires, including literature, film and television, and folklore. Encyclopedia of the Vampire: The Living Dead in Myth, Legend, and Popular Culture is a comprehensive encyclopedia relating to all phases of vampirism—in literature, film, and television; in folklore; and in world culture. Although previous encyclopedias have attempted to chart this terrain, no prior work contains the depth of information, the breadth of scope, and the up-to-date coverage of this volume. With contributions from many leading critics of horror and supernatural literature and media, the encyclopedia offers entries on leading authors of vampire literature (Bram Stoker, Anne Rice, Stephenie Meyer), on important individual literary works (Dracula and Interview with the Vampire), on celebrated vampire films (the many different adaptations of Dracula, the Twilight series, Love at First Bite), and on television shows (Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel). It also covers other significant topics pertaining to vampires, such as vampires in world folklore, humorous vampire films, and vampire lifestyle.
