The Trap

The history of the decades that draws people into another world, where life persists infinitely in a distorted form. In May 1931, Lovecraft visited the town of Dunedin, where his acquaintance, Henry St. Clair Whitehead, lived. It was during this time or shortly thereafter that he assisted him with "The Trap." About three-quarters of the story is the work of the writer from Providence—compact sentences at some point transform into elaborate, descriptive paragraphs entirely in the style of Lovecraft. HPL also admits at some point that he enriched the work with the main theme (letter to August Derleth, December 23, 1931).
