About this audiobook
From his Washington Park studio, Scott can see the sinister watchman of a nearby church. His model, Tessie, tells him the watchman shares the face of a hearse driver who’s been appearing in her dreams. Scott grows more and more unsettled by the watchman, until one day, he hears the man mumble something from a mysterious play that always signals trouble: The King in Yellow. Readers of “The Yellow Sign” will be left questioning the boundaries between reality, dream, and fiction.
Author
Robert W. Chambers
Robert William Chambers (1865-1933) was a Brooklyn-born artist and writer best known for producing supernatural, horror and weird tales. He published his first novel, In the Quarter in 1894 but didn’t receive major recognition until 1895 with a collection of short stories called The King in Yellow. Despite entries in other genres, such as romance and historical fiction, Chambers’ most acclaimed works were Gothic in nature. His eerie tales would go on to inspire a generation of writers including H.P. Lovecraft.
