Summary: Recognized as a leading author of stories published during the Golden Age of science fiction (many in collaboration with his wife, Catherine L. Moore), Henry Kuttner also wrote stories for the horror pulp magazines of the late 30s and early 40s. Terror in the House assembles more than forty rare works from the fragile pages of "Weird Tales" and other pulp magazines of the day. Several tales are set in H.P. Lovecraft's "Cthulhu Mythos" while others are examples of the "weird menace" stories (where a seemingly supernatural plot is resolved with a commonplace ending). Also included are Kuttner's first science fictions stories and his few forays into the "spicy" pulps. Richard Matheson provides a preface and Dr. Garyn G. Roberts' lengthy introduction examines Kuttner's background and influences for these early works.
