ⓘ About H.P. Lovecraft
Howard Phillips Lovecraft, more commonly known as H.P. Lovecraft, was one of the most influential horror authors. Unfortunately he was rather unknown during his life and only became famous after his death. H.P. was born in 1890 in Providence, Rhode Island, USA and spent most of his life there. He had to see his father being locked up in a mental institution when he was only three years of age. His mother raised him together with his grandfather and two aunts, who all lived together in the family home. He started writing horror stories with eight. His grandfather, who loved storytelling, was an inspiring influence early on and encouraging him to read. As he suffered from anxiety and didn’t get along with his classmates, his mother decided to keep him at home most of the time.

? Frequently Asked Questions
Who is H.P. Lovecraft?
Howard Phillips Lovecraft, more commonly known as H.P. Lovecraft, was one of the most influential horror authors. Unfortunately he was rather unknown during his life and only became famous after his death.
Which H.P. Lovecraft series should I start with?
The best place to start is the Dream Cycle series, the earliest of H.P. Lovecraft's multi-book series: it opens with The White Ship (1919) and runs to 5 books across 1919–1970, ending with The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath (1970). H.P. Lovecraft's other series stand alone, so they can be read in any order.
How many books has H.P. Lovecraft written?
H.P. Lovecraft has 508 books catalogued in this guide, published between 1667 and 2026. 275 of them belong to 12 named series — the largest being the Eerie Archives series with 27 books — and 233 are standalone titles, collections or anthologies.
In what order should H.P. Lovecraft's series be read?
Read each series in publication order — the numbered entries in each series follow the year each book first appeared. H.P. Lovecraft's series do not depend on one another, so they can be started in any order; by start date they are Dream Cycle (1919–1970, 5 books), Randolph Carter (1925, 1 book) and Sci-Fi & Horror - SelfMadeHero (1936–2021, 12 books), plus 4 more.
