The King in Yellow

A Short Story Collection by Robert W. Chambers

There exists a book—no, a forbidden play—whispered about in the darkest corners of forgotten libraries, a text so haunting that those who read beyond its first act descend into madness. The King in Yellow by Robert W. Chambers is more than a collection of eerie tales; it is an invitation to gaze into the abyss of the unknown, where reality frays, and cosmic horrors lurk just beyond the veil. Within its pages, doomed artists, desperate lovers, and lost souls find themselves ensnared by the sinister presence of the Yellow Sign, an ominous symbol linked to the enigmatic, otherworldly monarch who rules the haunted realm of Carcosa.
