AuthorsWilliam Hope Hodgson
William Hope Hodgson (1877–1918) was a British writer whose sea stories, occult investigations and visions of a dying world form a major precursor to cosmic horror. His fiction repeatedly makes human safety depend on a fragile boundary: a ship’s hull, a house, a protective circle or the last inhabited refuge in an overwhelmingly hostile landscape.
