Discover why The King in Yellow by Robert W. Chambers is a must-read for fans of horror and weird fiction. Uncover its eerie tales, rich atmospheres, and lasting influence.
I LOVED the King in Yellow's season of True Detective.
I think the first story, the Repairer of Reputations, was definitely the star of the book. Some of the other stories (the Mask) being a classic example, could be a bit maudlin.
I think the King in Yellow should be on every horror author's book shelf.
This was interesting, definitely piqued my interest, will have to check this out.
Happy reading 😁
A remarkable and influential story cycle in horror history.
Absolutely. I really like that decadence style and the transition from the artists normal lives to the horror of each story
I'm going to have to give Chambers a read!
These stories from The King in Yellow are a good place to start
