Presented as the first-person account of geologist William Dyer, a professor at Miskatonic University, the story follows an ill-fated Antarctic expedition that uncovers ancient ruins and nightmarish horrors buried beneath the ice. As the team explores towering, otherworldly structures and strange hieroglyphs, they come to realize that they are not alone—unspeakable beings, long thought extinct, still lurk in the frozen wastes.
