An artist plagued by repeated sightings of a watchman who looks like a coffin worm. Ghosts, wayward cats, and scientific dabblings with dire consequences. Each of these ten tales is chilling in its own right, but taken together, they weave a wickedly eerie spell that is sure to enthrall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnited by vague references to a play with the same name, which never appears in the book―a play that \"induces despair or madness in those who read it\"―The King in Yellow is undoubtedly Robert W. Chambers' finest work. The book quickly gained an influence over generations of writers of \"weird tales,\" long before there was even a name for them. H. P. Lovecraft greatly admired the book, hailing it as achieving \"notable heights of cosmic fear.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChambers' genius will take readers to the most horrifying place of all―their own imaginations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis beautiful new reprint includes an introduction by creator and writer of True Detective, Nic Pizzalatto.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e____\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eFor a brief description of book conditions, please visit \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/oddbirdbookshop.com\/pages\/condition-faqs\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eCondition FAQs\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eIf you have specific questions about a book, please \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/oddbirdbookshop.com\/pages\/contact\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eContact Us\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Odd Bird Bookshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52138183688475,"sku":"9781464213717","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0860\/9048\/1947\/files\/9781464213717.jpg?v=1777481947","url":"https:\/\/oddbirdbookshop.com\/products\/the-king-in-yellow-haunted-library-horror-classics","provider":"Odd Bird Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
