The Picture in the House - Howard P. Lovecraft

While a man is out cycling in rural New England, a storm is brewing. He finds that the only option for shelter is a house nearby.It is, of course, not a normal house. It is a creepy house - occupied by an even creepier, old man.When the narrator and the old man study an inscription in a rare book, the man says it makes him hunger for "victuals I couldn't raise nor buy".As it dawns on the cyclist that the man is a cannibal who lures travellers to their death, blood drips from the ceiling onto the book that he holds...'The Picture in the House' is a must-read for fans of horror classics including Alfred Hitchcock's 'Psycho', and the Netflix series and novel 'The Haunting of Hill House'.
