The Thing on the Doorstep
When Daniel Upton’s closest friend, Edward Derby, undergoes a disturbing transformation after marrying the enigmatic Asenath Waite, he begins to suspect that something unnatural is at play. As Edward’s behavior grows more erratic and terrifying secrets come to light, Daniel is forced to confront a horror beyond human comprehension—one that reaches beyond life, death, and identity itself. H.P. LOVECRAFT [1890-1937], born in Providence, Rhode Island, was an American writer known for his horror, fantasy, and science fiction stories. Both of Lovecraft's parents suffered from mental illness, which greatly influenced his youth. He began writing at an early age but had a limited readership during his lifetime. Today, Lovecraft is regarded as an icon of popular culture and is considered one of the most influential and innovative horror writers of the 20th century, often compared to Edgar Allan Poe.
