The H.P. Lovecraft Institute
by David Bischoff

Description:
Behold, an implosion of pop culture in late 80s Rhode Island!

With Stephen King to the north of him, Dean Koontz to the west, William Faulkner moldering in the south and H. P. Lovecraft close by in formaldehyde, Tony Dickens is nobody special: he's just a teenage horror fan who lives in a dinky little town in an eldritch little state.

But destiny has plans for young Tony.

It reaches into his life in the form of a mysterious older man who takes over a creaky house -- as a murder spree perpetrated by the villians of yesteryear comes to the creepy little town.

Little does Tony know that his own inborn talents have helped the unearthly powers.

Powers beyond our imagination -- powers that invoked a plague from the pages of Weird Tales that threatens life itself.
