Omschrijving

In a house of impossible angles, the journey to the other side begins in your dreams.

Walter Gilman, a gifted mathematics and folklore student at Miskatonic University, rents an attic room in a notorious, decaying house in Arkham, Massachusetts. The house is rumored to have once been home to Keiza Mason, a 17th-century witch who escaped the Salem trials, and her familiar, a horrific, rat-like entity with a human face named Brown Jenkin.

Gilman chose the room specifically because he believes its bizarre, non-Euclidean angles and skewed dimensions--features that defy human architecture--make it a nexus point for travel to other planes of existence. Obsessed with Keiza Mason's history and the possibility of traveling through hyper-spatial geometry, Gilman's research soon turns into terrifying reality.

He begins to experience vivid, horrifying dreams in which he is kidnapped by the witch and Brown Jenkin, flying through impossible angles and across the gulfs of space to worship before the ultimate, cosmic entities of the Cthulhu Mythos, like Azathoth. The line between sleep and wakefulness dissolves, and Gilman finds physical proof of his nightly journeys--strange wounds, dirt, and bizarre alien artifacts in his room.

The Dreams in the Witch House is a masterpiece of scientific and cosmic horror. H. P. Lovecraft uses advanced mathematics and physics--particularly the concept of non-Euclidean space--to frame the terror, suggesting that the true source of all occult evil is a perversion of universal laws, and that some houses are simply gates to the abyss.

The walls have eyes. The corners lead to eternity.
