Howard Phillips Lovecraft (/ˈlʌvkræft, -ˌkrɑːft/;[1] August 20, 1890 – March 15, 1937) was an American author who achieved posthumous fame through his influential works of horror fiction.

Biography and works

Lovecraft was born in Providence, Rhode Island, where he spent most of his life.

Virtually unknown and only published in pulp magazines before he died in poverty, he is now regarded as one of the most significant 20th-century authors in his genre.

Among his most celebrated tales are "The Call of Cthulhu", canonical to the Cthulhu Mythos.
