At the Mountains of Madness is a chilling Antarctic expedition tale by H.P. Lovecraft. Told through the eyes of a scientist, it blends real exploration with growing unease as the team ventures deeper into the frozen wastes. The story builds an atmosphere of isolation, cosmic dread, and the sense that humanity is brushing against mysteries it was never meant to uncover.
