The King in Yellow (AmazonClassics Edition) (Unabridged‪)‬

What is the terrible secret at the heart of The King in Yellow? The forbidden play’s second act is said to drive all those who read it mad. And the sinister text casts its shadow of dread over Robert W. Chambers’s collection of weird, supernatural stories of the same name.

Threaded with elements of fantasy, science fiction, the supernatural, and gothic horror, this cult classic continues to inspire the imagination of artists - from H. P. Lovecraft to the writers of HBO’s True Detective - and delight connoisseurs of the macabre.

Revised edition: Previously published as The King in Yellow, this edition of The King in Yellow (AmazonClassics Edition) includes editorial revisions.
