Imprisoned with the Pharaohs (Fantasy and Horror Classics) e-bog

After being kidnapped by a local tour guide who bears a striking resemblance to an ancient pharaoh, Harold Houdini is thrown in a deep pit next to the Great Sphinx. Whilst trying to break free, he happens across a large cave where he encounters the ancient god and inspiration for the Sphinx. Written in collaboration with Harry Houdini in February 1924, "e;Imprisoned with the Pharaohs"e; is an interesting short story from master of the form, H. P. Lovecraft, and is not to be missed by fans and collectors of his seminal work. Howard Phillips Lovecraft (1890-1937) was an American writer of supernatural horror fiction. Though his works remained largely unknown and did not furnish him with a decent living, Lovecraft is today considered to be among the most significant writers of supernatural horror fiction of the twentieth century. Other notable works by this author include: "e;At the Mountains of Madness"e;, "e;The Rats in the Walls"e;, and "e;The Shadow Over Innsmouth"e;. Read & Co. is publishing this classic short story now as part of our "e;Fantasy and Horror Classics"e; imprint in a new edition with a dedication by George Henry Weiss.
