Stainless Steel Sarcophagus
(2018)Tales Of Lovecraftian Fantasy & Horror
A collection of stories by Michael Sheehan Jr and Mark McLaughlin
STAINLESS STEEL SARCOPHAGUS presents seven Cthulhu Mythos tales of horror and dark fantasy. In the title story, a work of modern art known as the Stainless Steel Sarcophagus unleashes a grotesque ancient Egyptian menace upon the employees of a luxury department store.
Several tales in this collection concern beings from the Lovecraftian Dreamlands and their disturbing interactions with the waking world. In "The House Of The Ocelot," a curious barista enters a strange building in his neighborhood and encounters a hidden race of cat-creatures. "The Dollmaker's Vengeance" tells of a witch who uses a threat from the waking world to gain power in the Dreamlands. In "Queen Of The Vultures," two magic gentlemen from the Dreamlands seek the Egyptian vulture-goddess Nekhbet, who hides in plain sight in an urban community. Three more stories present eldritch parodies, including the tale of a hideous Lovecraftian atrocity who goes to work as a movie monster.
Mark McLaughlin is the author of BEST LITTLE WITCH-HOUSE IN ARKHAM and the Lovecraftian epic poem, THE ARRIVAL OF OUR NEW MASTER. With McLaughlin, Michael Sheehan, Jr. has co-authored the paperback collection, HORRORS & ABOMINATIONS, as well as the Kindle collections, THE ABOMINATIONS OF NEPHREN-KA, THE HORROR IN THE WATER TOWER, THE BLASPHEMY IN THE CANOPIC JAR, SHOGGOTH APOCALYPSE, THE RELIC IN THE EGYPTIAN GALLERY, THE TESTAMENT OF CTHULHU, THE IDOL IN THE HEDGE MAZE, and PYRAMID OF THE SHOGGOTHS.
