The Horror at Red Hook was H.P. Lovecraft's attempt to break out of the Weird Tales ghetto and into the comparatively mainstream crime pulps. The story was ultimately rejected by the tough guy magazines before finding a home in a 1927 issue of Weird Tales.

It's an offbeat tale for Lovecraft in that The Horror at Red Hook deals with the kind of mundane human-sacrificing cultists found everywhere in weird fiction in those days. It's also shockingly on point in many other regards, serving as a showcase for many of Lovecraft's more odious convictions.

For this poster I decided to lean into film noir, adding Lovecraft as leading man Randolph Carter in the role of "Det. Thomas Malone," accompanied by famed swinger/perjurist Lionel Atwill as satanist "Robert Suydam."
