When a student goes missing, one of their teachers realises that it could have something to do with an item in their possession: an antique mirror from the 1600s with a dark past and dangerous power. A classic example of quintessential horror fiction, Lovecraft’s “The Trap” is highly recommended for lovers of terrifying literature. 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: “The Call of Cthulhu”, “The Rats in the Walls”, and “The Shadow Over Innsmouth”. Read & Co. is publishing this short story now as part of our “Fantasy and Horror Classics” imprint in a new edition with a dedication by George Henry Weiss.
