This short story tells the story of Paul Marsh, a young man who discovers that the truth will not set him free instead it condemns him to a waking nightmare of unrelenting horror.

So another pretty average short story from H.P Lovecraft. I’ve been lately binge reading H.P Lovecraft stories so that’s the reason why there have been so much talk about H.P Lovecraft on this site lately. But lets go to the review shall we ?

The writing style was pretty good in this one, it really surprised me how good it was because I had low expectations for this short story. 

The plot itself was pretty good, but it could have been better. There were parts where I connected with this story but I hard time connecting with the entire story which means no so high rating. 

But I gotta admit that this short story is one of the darkest mythos in literature. Which I really didn’t mind because it was relatively good.

I give this short story 3 / 5
