Synopsis: From the Back Cover of the DAW Books First Edition: Welcome to Miskatonic U- nestled in the town of Arkham, a place made famous by the master of the horrific H.P. Lovecraft. Miskatonic University is a rather unique institution, one that teaches all the basic skills in such courses as Prophecy and Spell-casting. Within its hallowed halls, lie many treasures, rare volumes which perhaps should never have been written, and definitely should never have been opened by anyone but their creators. For anyone who has ever been caught in Lovecraft's spell, and everyone who loves a good horror tale, here are thirteen original stories that will introduce you to the dark side of education, and prove once and for all that a little arcane knowledge can be a dangerous thing. From a teaching assistant who is experiencing far too high a rate of sudden absenteeism among her pupils... to a comedian/writer offered a position he can't turn down... to a child of Arkham with far too much of the Devil in him... there are unforgettable tales of terror in the true Lovecraft tradition, stories that will haunt you long after you leave these hallowed halls and dank tunnels behind.
