Journey to exotic worlds as the Jinns relate tales of madness and terror!

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 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.

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.

The tale of global climate change resulting from the Sun approaching Earth. Humanity is on the brink of extinction, and the main character embarks on a journey to a place where, according to legends, people live in better conditions. All presented in an ironic manner, typical of Lovecraft, who holds humanity in contempt.

The thief is trying to steal the treasure of the "Wizard-Beast." Of course, he faces punishment. The main motif resembles Dunsany's texts about similar thieves, and as for Lovecraft's works themselves – The Terrible Old Man.

A short novella about a brave nation attempting to slay a terrible beast that no one has seen.
