"The Horror at Red Hook" by H. P. Lovecraft is a short story written in August 1925. Detective Thomas Malone investigates the mysterious transformation of reclusive scholar Robert Suydam, who has suddenly become younger and more vibrant while haunting Brooklyn's crime-ridden waterfront slums.

His investigation leads him into a nightmare of devil-worship and dark rituals that will leave him forever changed. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
