Reflective, unhurried, and artistically rich tale about a painter who rests in a cottage by the ocean, sensing mysterious presences on the beach and in the water. The story focuses on the sensations and intuitions of the main character, imbuing the whole narrative with an evocative taste of elusive dread, quite distinct from overt horror.

The story takes place in the future, when people are colonizing other planets in the Solar System. A soldier from a unit stationed on Venus is sent to retrieve a crystal that holds strategic importance for humans but falls into a trap set by the native lizard-like people – a labyrinth with invisible walls. The original version of the story, written by the young Kenneth Sterling (based on the idea from Edmond Hamilton's story "The Monster-God of Mamurth"), was half as long. Lovecraft rewrote the work, preserving as many original elements as possible.

"The Alchemist" was a "validation" of Lovecraft's literary skills in the United Amateur Press Association, i.e., a literary text based on which the author's writing predispositions were assessed and a decision was made about whether to accept him into the said association or reject his candidacy.

In the mysterious and perilous world of Hyboria, Conan the Cimmerian roams the vast wastelands. Alongside the scantily clad Natala, he arrives at a forgotten city in a distant oasis. There, he uncovers dark secrets, and the Lovecraftian demon Thog becomes his adversary. Will Conan survive in this desolate land? “The Slithering Shadow” is a tale of adventure, magic, and an inevitable clash with supernatural evil.

The passage describes a fictional duel that took place on New Year's Eve in the year 2000 between Two-Gun Bob and Wild Wolf of West Shokan. Full of absurd events and bizarre descriptions, the piece introduces around thirty colorful characters, each of whom is a reflection of someone from H.P. Lovecraft's environment, under meaningful pseudonyms.

“The Disinterment of Venus” is a short story by Clark Ashton Smith that transports us to the year 1550. In the Perigon Abbey in Averoigne, something extraordinary and scandalous has occurred. Three monks—Paul, Pierre, and Hughes—unearth a marble statue of a goddess hidden in the monastery garden. Its arms and bosom evoke both pious terror and mysterious excitement. Could it be the ancient Venus herself?

A doctor who treats a person afflicted with leprosy using macabre methods is an unstable physician. Although Rimel admitted that he wrote the story himself and Lovecraft only made stylistic corrections, the work is characterized by the very distinct style of the latter. Even though the writer from Providence congratulated his junior colleague on the text and claimed to have made only minor corrections, it could have been a typical courtesy on his part. A supporter of the hypothesis of Lovecraft's authorship is that Rimel did not create anything else in a similar style.

“The Scarlet Citadel” is a dark tale of a king in chains, sorcerers, and betrayal. Set in the Hyborian Age, a world teeming with magic and danger, Conan the Cimmerian ascends to the throne. His army marches to aid an ally, but it’s a trap. Conan is captured and imprisoned in the dungeons by the powerful sorcerer Tsotha.

An absurd (and unfinished) story about the threat posed by the infinite network of scissor-shaped spacecraft with completely alien shapes faced by the civilization of plant-animal creatures. A mockery ridiculing the popular space opera of the 1930s. Although Lovecraft and Barlow intended to write one paragraph each, the latter created the majority of the work.

George Campbell sets out with a tent into the Canadian forests to find respite from work. There, he comes across a crystalline cube that exhibits extraordinary properties – the longer one gazes at it, the more it glows, beginning to hypnotize the observer. Campbell is reminded of the story of the so-called Eltdown Shards, whose alleged translation spoke of crystalline cubes and a race of entities sending minds into the Universe for exploration using such cubes.

Young Randolph Carter glimpsed a marvelous city in his dreams. Enthralled by its beauty, he embarks on a steadfast quest, descending into the realms of dreams and experiencing numerous adventures.

The so-called "Roman dream," excerpted from a letter to Donald Wandrei dated November 2, 1927. In this dream, Lovecraft was a quaestor in one of the Spanish provinces under Roman rule. In the town of Pompeii, an ancient people threatened the city, performing terrifying rituals every year on the eve of November.

A humorous tale of a fictional scholar from the 4th century, and his skull. The inspiration for the story stemmed from the mistaken belief of Maurice W. Moego's students that "ibid." (an abbreviation for the Latin "ibidem," meaning "in the same place") was the author's surname. The piece, in the process, serves as a satire on academic erudition and the meticulousness of scholarly work.

A melodramatic tale of a doctor searching for a cure to a mysterious affliction tormenting San Francisco. His sinister assistant, Surama, "helps" him.
