"Two friends, Tonnison and Berregnog, stumble upon an old house in rural Ireland and discover the journal of "the Recluse," an unidentified man who recorded his last days in the house before its destruction. The journal recounts strange visions that dogged the Recluse-terrifying creatures that crawl up from below the house to torment him. But the journal is unfinished, and the friends are left to speculate on the man's fate-and their own. First published in 1908 by William Hope Hodgson, The House on the Borderland is a classic Gothic novel that shaped the genre of horror into what it is today. Praised by iconic artists like H. P. Lovecraft and Terry Pratchett and presented now by the Horror Writers Association, this story is one that haunts the reader long after the book has been closed"--
