"The Lurking Fear" is a short story by H. P. Lovecraft in the horror fiction genre. Written in November 1922, it was first published in the January through April 1923 issues of Home Brew.

The narrator, hearing tales of a "lurking fear" upon Tempest Mountain, takes two men with him to investigate. They camp inside the deserted Martense Mansion as a lightning storm approaches, and feeling strangely drowsy, they all fall alseep. The narrator wakes up to find both his companions missing, and in a flash of lightning sees a demonic shadow cast upon the fireplace chimney as well as a grotesque monster by his side.

------------------------------------------------------
Martense was drawn in Photoshop.
Thanks to :iconfrozenstarro: :iconzombiestock: for the use of their most excellent stock textures.

I like the narrated version by WAYNE JUNE, on my ipod. Dead creepy.
I wanted to give an out-worldly look to the creatures, and wanted to give them a twisted feel.

Listening to VHR (Vintage Horror Radio) clips now. Warning - 1 minute of modern intro before original radio plays commence.

Enjoy, and have a good day. :D
