Crawford Tillinghast was once a warm and ordinary man. Months of obsessive work in the attic of his empty house have left him gaunt, yellow-skinned and feverishly triumphant, and now he summons his oldest friend to witness what he has built.
The machine is simple: a mass of glass and metal that emits a strange violet glow and stimulates the pineal gland, the organ Tillinghast insists is the body’s true sense of sight. Switched on, it reveals that the air of an ordinary room is crowded with living things that have always been there, swimming through us and through each other. And the things, in turn, can now see us.
Written in 1920, From Beyond is one of H.P. Lovecraft’s most influential tales of cosmic horror: a short, hallucinatory story about a scientist who tears open the limits of human perception and cannot close them again. It inspired the 1986 cult film of the same name.
Listen to the complete, unabridged audiobook of this classic by the creator of the Cthulhu Mythos.
