📜 Historical context
Lovecraft’s 1928 masterpiece stands as a cornerstone of weird fiction, bridging early pulp sensibilities with the mythos that would define modern cosmic horror. It moves beyond simple ghosts to explore deep time, suggesting that human history is merely a fleeting moment in an uncaring cosmos ruled by indifferent, ancient entities, thereby influencing generations of speculative writers.
