Howard Phillips Lovecraft (Providence, August 20, 1890-Providence, March 15, 1937) better known as H. P. Lovecraft, was an American writer, author of stories and novels of horror and science fiction.

He is considered a great innovator of the horror story, to which he contributed his own mythology —the Cthulhu Mythos—, developed in collaboration with other authors, currently in force.

His work constitutes a classic of cosmic horror, a narrative line that deviates from traditional supernatural horror stories —satanism, ghosts—, including elements of science fiction such as, for example, alien races, time travel, or the existence of other dimensions.
