The festival by H. P. Lovecraft
"The Festival" by H. P. Lovecraft is a short story written in October 1923. An unnamed narrator travels to the ancient Massachusetts town of Kingsport to honor a family tradition—attending a forbidden festival held once every century. He finds a decrepit town frozen in time, where silent, masked figures lead him through colonial streets to a church hiding dark secrets. Beneath the crypt lies a nightmare realm where ancestral horrors gather for
rituals older than mankind itself. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
