In the Shadow over Innsmouth, Dagon, a fish "god," establishes himself and his religion in the remote New England town of Innsmouth.
Lovecraft himself plays an outsider arriving at Innsmouth for a stroll, only to discover the hidden horrors of Dagon's presence... and a few things about himself.
Another of Lovecraft's famous monsters make a debut... the Deep Ones. What are they? Read it.”
