This project has its genesis in one I started back in the 1980s but never really got off the ground, and it is a living document that will continue to grow and be refined indefinitely. Titles of short stories appear in quotes and are followed by the date and venue of their first publication in parentheses. Thanks to Wikipedia for providing some of the material that appears on this site!

Tempest Mountain: A fictitious mountain set in the Catskill Mountains of New York state created by Lovecraft for his serialized short story "The Lurking Fear." It has a reputation in the local area for being haunted and is characterized by terrible storms and lightning strikes, fulgurites, and oddly-shaped mounds in the woods clinging to its slopes. Its peak is occupied by the ruins of the Martense family mansion, the remains of Dutch gardens, groves of misshapen trees, and the burying ground for the family.
