Overview

Frank Belknap Long. The Horror From the Hills. Sauk City: Arkham House, 1963. Dust jacket, with art by Richard Taylor.First edition, variant with copyright notice affixed to the title leaf verso. As originally published the copyright notice was inadvertently left off the copyright page. Examples with the copyright notice affixed are actually scarcer than those without. "This unusually powerful and imaginative story concerns a hideous stone idol brought from China, and an age-old entity which uses that idol as a material tenement to bend humanity to its evil will. The spawn of remote stars and unholy dimensions, Chaugnar Faugn could incarn itself at its pleasure in dimensions lower than its own and loose horror upon the world. "Mr. Long writes, 'This novel is in some respects a period piece, for it was written inside a Time Capsule traveling through the intangible dimensions conjured up by such masters of the macabre as Arthur Machen, Algernon Blackwood, M.P. Shiel, M.R. James and, of course, Lovecraft. And above all me, as I traveled, another dark-shrouded figure seemed to hover--the towering ghost of Edgar Allan Poe. I am very glad that it is to appear in book form at last, for there are visions of strangeness and beauty which come to us when we are quite young and remain with us until we are too old to dream. They are visions we like to share.'"
