Description
In a decaying village, the Whateley family harbors a dark secret involving a monstrous birth and a plan to open the gates to other dimensions. Wilbur Whateley's accelerated growth and his quest for the Necronomicon signal a threat that requires the intervention of scholars from Miskatonic University. The story contrasts rural folklore and decay with academic knowledge, culminating in a battle against an invisible titan. It is a classic confrontation between human intellect and the abominations of the Outer Void.
