Description from Project Gutenberg

"The Shadow over Innsmouth" by H. P. Lovecraft is a horror novella written in November–December 1931. A young student's antiquarian tour through New England leads him to the decaying seaport of Innsmouth, where he encounters strange inhabitants with an unsettling appearance and discovers dark secrets about the town's history. His inquiries uncover a sinister conspiracy involving an ancient undersea civilization and a mysterious cult, leading to a nightmarish revelation that threatens his sanity and survival.
