Christmas Cthulhu Tale: Haita the Shepherd by Ambrose Bierce

“Pondering these things Haïta became melancholy and morose. He no longer spoke cheerfully to his flock, nor ran with alacrity to the shrine of Hastur. In every breeze he heard whispers of malign deities whose existence he now first observed. Every cloud was a portent signifying disaster, and the darkness was full of terrors.”—Ambrose Bierce (Haita the Shepherd)

Children of Horror/ Legion of Ghouls,
Tonight,
Let’s get into the Christmas spirit of sorts with Ambrose Bierce’s haunting tale “Haita the Shepherd”. First published for the Wave on January 24, 1891, this tale introduces Hastur the god who is also known as…The King in Yellow. Though many will recognize him as the half-brother to Cthulhu.
Enjoy.
