🟡 ABOUT THE COLLECTION

The King in Yellow adapts four supernatural stories from Robert W. Chambers' influential 1895 collection.

A mysterious forbidden play spreads madness among those who encounter it, revealing glimpses of Carcosa, the Yellow Sign, and the enigmatic King in Yellow.

Combining psychological terror, decadent atmosphere, and metaphysical mystery, Culbard brings to life one of the most important literary influences on H. P. Lovecraft and the later Cthulhu Mythos.
